Why would anyone want to defile their G20 with a .40 conversion...

When I had my 20 I planned on getting the 40 barrel too. In a pinch you can shoot the 40 out of the 10 barrel, but it is hard on the extractor and reliability suffers. I ultimately ended up reloading

Gotcha.  I never liked shooting my buddies 23.  The recoil was snappy and just did not feel right.  In the full size 20 I am sure it would be fine.  40 is cheaper than 10mm so its might not be a bad i

Kahr....

Ya make a valid point... The idea is shootin cheap ammo thru this great gizmo at the pistol range; and savin the "real stuff" for the "...i gotta hit it hard..." situations... 40 brass is so cheap ya dont need ta bother to pick it up... Ten mm... Pretty expensive...

I have never tried this, but THIS GUY (again, I have never tried it) claims that it is actually better to shoot .40 out of a Glock 20

I invested in a "Lone Wolf" 40 barrel... It works like a charm.... The 20 shoots soft with the 165 grain 40SW ammo... Is a joy to shoot... Don't even bother to pick up the brass... Highly recommended...
