Been saying this since the days of $300 gen3 23s. I used to only get .40s exclusively because you can convert them. Great in a shtf scenario because your chance of being able to shoot found ammo goes up by a caliber.
Let me see. With conversion barrels you can shoot 9mm, 40, 357 Sig and with a conversion kit you can shoot 22 lr. Four calibers for the same gun. It’s great, I know, that’s exactly what I did. I love it.
I agree with you. I have a g35, I am a competitive shooter, I use 40 cal for practice and 40-9 barrel 9mm cal in competition. It seems I got a better advantage on speed. Although the scoring is minimum, but still ok.
Huh. I used to shoot a g22 many many moons ago so I was in high power open class with a comp. I've always been surprised that Glock never fielded a .38 super.
You stated was I was thinking. I also have the G35 and the benefit of having a thicker barrel for a 9mm swap is a no brainer as it helps with muzzle flip. If you're shooting subsonic 9mm loads get a tungsten recoil guide rod and a set of springs with different pound ratings. I had to play around with a few different options for cycling well for subsonic 9mm while using a muzzle compsinsator. I've almost eliminated any barrel flip. I don't understand why people buy the G34 when the G35 is basically a transformer and can do anything with it. 75% of the internals are swapped out and have it down to just switching springs and barrels for the different loads and calibers. I never tried using the 9mm rounds in the 40 magazines. Just bought a few 9mm magazines (couple of fun sticks). Not to mention 9mm is slightly cheaper to practice with than 40.
I have thought of this too. You can also put a 357 SIG barrel in it, making essentially, a 3 caliber kit, with which, you could compete AND hunt. The heavier barrel would take more to move, thus dampening felt recoil and muzzle flip.
Yeah, I caught that too. Huge difference. We both know what he meant but the problem is that there are many other “shooters” who are not educated about these things……..
I bought a used 23, popped in a threaded 9mm conversion with a long compensator for my MCK. Works great. Now I can run 9mm suppressed, compensated, or swap to my .40 barrel and run a bit hotter ammo.
Another advantage (assuming that glock didn't beef up their frames across their entire line up) is that glock had to beef up the frames on the 40cal pistols due to fram cracking. So the 35 is going to be a tougher pistol.
It’s the same argument get the 40 cal models since you can get conversions on shoot 9mm and 357 sig. So the 22 = 17, 35 = 34, 23 = 19, 24 = 17L, and the 27 = 26.
I have Model 22 and 23 with 9mm barrels, and mags for the same reason. I can add a .357 Sig barrel if desired. Oh, I also have one .22 Glock conversion barrel, slide and mags. This is a traveler kit. Thanks for the video.
chgofirefighter discussed below, USPSA division shooting, major power factor, great reason for a glock 35. IDPA, use your Glock 34. Also don't forget, if all you have are glock 26 and glock 19 magazines, now you'll have to purchase glock 17 magazines. because the all other magazines won't fit into your newly converted glock 34 that have less then 17 rounds.
This is why I bought the 23. Not to mention the gobs of police trade ins on the market right now. $325 for a Gen 3 with night sights, it was a no brainer!
This was my thoughts exactly I'm building my Polymer 80 Glock 23 now and a 40 with the conversion Barrel in my next gun is this going to be the same in a 35 in a 40 caliber with conversion Barrel.
.40 s&w will penetrate barriers that 9mm won’t. It’s all fine and dandy for putting holes in paper fast but... when someone is behind a car door shooting at you, the 180gr gold dot will defeat the car door.
So will a 124gr 9mm gold dot. Not to mention other more efficient and capable rounds. Only with a 9, you can put more rounds on target. More rounds on target=more problems solved. Also easier follow up shots on top of more of them. Youlld be hardpressed to find a round that won't make fast work of car doors. Especially modern car doors.
Philip Oliver Holes 9mm will never be better at barrier penetration than the .40 s&w. Yes you can shoot a 9mm faster but if the rounds don’t penetrate barriers and still have enough energy to penetrate the pos that’s trying to kill you, your just making smoke and noise.
Why are the subsonic 9mm dont cycle well? Maybe because of the recoil spring being stronger because its for the stronger 40? I have read in forums from people who DONT have any problems with subsonics in their 34. One show up who wrote that they even work in his 17L.
I have a 35 with 9mm & 357 Sig barrels which I have owned for over 10 years. Have never had any issues with subsonic rounds EXCEPT for one load which I reloaded with a very light charge and cast bullet (9mm). I knew it was not going to cycle reliably but I wanted a very light load for my sister to try as a first time shooter.
You can always purchase a lighter spring made if necessary but I haven’t needed one yet. They are very inexpensive. There are zillions of Glock aftermarket parts.
Thank you for the interesting presentation. I would like to raise three points (concerns questions). How is the fitment of the 9mm barrel to the diameter of the barrel opening of a .40 caliber slide? For reliability when shooting 9mm, would you have to exchange the ejector from the ejector for .40 to the ejector for 9mm? Ditto for the extractor?
You're basically going from -.005 10mm to 9mm so the barrel still fits Because the conversion is designed to but the point is that it weighs more to fill that almost 1mm of space. It means with a heavier barrel you get less muzzle flip
First.. the barrel diameter is perfect... Noted: you can't use a regular 9mm barrel, you have to specifically buy a "conversion barrel", so that the outer diameter fits the g35, while the inner is the 9mm. (hints why he likes it, because it makes the barrel thicker, basically being a bull barrel).... Next, a 9mm ejector is bent compared to the .40, which is straight... .. It should be fine, unless you are having reliability issues, then you should probably get the 9mm ejector.......... But if it was the other way around and you leave your 9mm ejector in there and swap back to .40, shooting .40 with a 'bent 9mm ejector, then it could possibly hit the primer--- so make sure you have the .40 (straight) ejector when shooting the .40... I'm not sure about the extractor, I think it's close enough that it should still work for both.
I have a G35 with 2 additional barrels. 9mm and 357 Sig which I have owned and have been shooting for over 10 years. The 9mm barrel is thicker the entire length. As for the ejector, I haven’t changed anything except for purchasing a couple of 9mm mags. Zero issues with ejection. You can use the stock G35 mag in 40 cal for the 357 Sig cartridge if you decide to get the 375 barrel
I don't think so. The G34 is a 9mm so the barrel hole would be smaller and wouldn't fit the 40cal barrel. On the G35 you'd need a 9mm conversion barrel, which one of the difference is the size of that 9mm barrel is larger than a stock 9mm barrel so that it would fit perfectly in the slide. Hope that makes sense, lol
That’s what I thought, too. Look at all the UA-cam videos comparing 9mm to 40 and even 45. It might open your eyes. In addition, many police departments are going back to 9mm. The use of premium ammo such as Gold Dot, Federal HST and a few others is the reason
I have a 35 with 9mm & 357 Sig barrels. I got mine at Lone Wolf over 10 years ago. The 357 S barrel is ported. Not sure if they have threaded barrels……..
@@colinbisson2147 they're different sized case rims. Therefore, different sized extractors. If you want 100% reliability, you need to change out your extractor.
@@colinbisson2147 FTE Here: ua-cam.com/video/ZEqzGZ3X6Nw/v-deo.html With the wider side face for .40 and the smaller extractor for .40, you will not be getting full claw grip on the casing. You may get lucky, but to say it will work 100% always because it has in the past, is not true. Mine worked 100% until I got the FTE. Mine actually works 100% now that I changed the extractor.
Bull barrel because thicker by 1 mm? You've obviously never shot a bull barrel. 40 Smith & Wesson is not a necked down 10 mm, the case has just been shortened.
Contact lone wolf who make the most popular 40 to 9mm conversion barrels. I think there is a footnote about maybe needing another spring with gen 4 s....
Reason NOT to get a G35. Caliber conversions aren’t legal in USPSA, and the Glock is really only competitive in Production/Carry Optics which is a Minor only (9mm) division. If you’re going to compete in Limited/Open a Glock probably isn’t the right choice.
@G Smithy you do get the extra velocity but not the recoil reduction of the longer slide long slide actually does a pretty good job against the 10mms extra recoil not that i have shot any, just what ive seen on youtube, when will we fix california
??? wtf kind of non sense logic do you all have? I could just as easily buy my 34 (which I already have) and buy a Glock 35 barrel as well...? AND NO, it is NOT as easy as just swapping barrels in California, you have to have both serial numbers on record to have both barrels, good luck trying to explain to a California cop why you do not. I have no idea why I am here, I was googling Glock 35 barrels and somehow ended up on this video.
Not the A.T.F. High pressure rounds are retarded. As in, it retards your ability to hit a target more than once. Not to mention it is obnoxiously loud and wears down your firearm. .40 sucks.
The only reason to buy a G35 is to compete in USPSA Major division, personally, for me, the G34 is king plus widely used in competitive sports other calibers.
Use the 35 to compete in USPSA as you stated, but that certainly is not the only reason to purchase one. .40 S&W has more of an initial energy 'punch' for defensive purposes. There's no doubt about it, though penetration and expansion may be similar among the major calibers. I'm thinking that it might pay in the long run to get a 35 over a 34 and go with the 35 for HD and go with conversion bbl for 9mm.
What a nonsense. www.ammoland.com/2017/05/40-sw-smith-wesson-still-good-round/ Read it carefully, you might understand why the military is using 9 mm, and why FBI is switching to it, and why it does not apply to regular folks, unless you carry an AR15 everywhere you go.
@@garysarratt1 Advances in ammo have rendered it pretty moot now. Quality defensive 9mm ammo closely duplicates the performance of .40 S&W, while being easier to control and giving great capacity compared to the .40 Likewise, .45 ACP is seeing a huge comeback. .40 isn't likely to die entirely, but it's definitely not as popular as it was back in the 90s.
@MassEffectFan113 "Because they are old and cranky" -- Well, you are apparently young and turn whichever way the wind blows because you have not earned your own opinion. At least do yourself a favor and read what I pointed you at, unless you want to keep coming across as a not-so-bright teenager.

You are not alone we are three
No… we are 4 now

I have thought of this too. You can also put a 357 SIG barrel in it, making essentially, a 3 caliber kit, with which, you could compete AND hunt. The heavier barrel would take more to move, thus dampening felt recoil and muzzle flip.
I was wondering that, thanks. Definitely want to get the 357 kit for it.

It’s the same frame.
Make sense, did it with the g23 but..... took forever to find the barrel and get it shipped out here.
Glad I found this video as a first time buying a gun, I was about to go for the 34 but this just changed my mind!
Just buy a 34 and 35.
It’s the same argument get the 40 cal models since you can get conversions on shoot 9mm and 357 sig.

I think the 35 is the best Glock, I’m not a Glock fan, I’m owned a few sold them .The 35 is perfect for me, it will be the only Glock I own
The 24 hands down the best 40 cal Glock and the 35 right next to it :)
I owned a 34gen3 way back sold it lamented that I sold it and will be getting a complete 35 gen4 upper for my G22 gen4
No function issues with extractor or anything else swapping between the 9mm and 4s&w?
Yup exactly what he said, it’s a no decision to go with the 40 and be able to shoot 3 different calibers out of one pistol.
Hi there. Thank you for the great information. Will I be allowed to do this if I am a California resident?

My gen 4 Glock 35 with the Lone Wolf 9mm conversion barrel is a 2.6 ounces heavier than my gen 4 Glock 34.
That just helped me is a gen4 35 a good deal
And the barrel will be thicker further adding safety and recoil reducing weight
Did you have to change the extractor?
.357 sig as well. .40sw is a super versatile platform to branch out from
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
I like this gun from Dino Crisis. Glocks are sorta boring to look at but the longer barrel of the 35 is a beaut.
Damn just turned down a 35 only because I wasn’t sure if I could swap barrels and shoot 9mm like my glock 31. It’s was good deal I may go back !

Not the A.T.F. High pressure rounds are retarded. As in, it retards your ability to hit a target more than once. Not to mention it is obnoxiously loud and wears down your firearm. .40 sucks.
@@farmershane 9mm +p and +p+ has more pressure. Standard 9mm has the same pressure like 40S&W. 9mm hype is caused by lack of education.
Pretty weak sauce
The only reason to buy a G35 is to compete in USPSA Major division, personally, for me, the G34 is king plus widely used in competitive sports other calibers.
Use the 35 to compete in USPSA as you stated, but that certainly is not the only reason to purchase one.
.40 S&W has more of an initial energy 'punch' for defensive purposes. There's no doubt about it, though penetration and expansion may be similar among the major calibers. I'm thinking that it might pay in the long run to get a 35 over a 34 and go with the 35 for HD and go with conversion bbl for 9mm.
The 40 S&W is nearly dead for various reasons. It will soon be in company with 357 Sig. Long live 10mm.
Man you made a 1min video 4x longer. The point you made is good, but could have been summed up much quicker.
.40 S&W is pretty much a dead round now.
What a nonsense. www.ammoland.com/2017/05/40-sw-smith-wesson-still-good-round/ Read it carefully, you might understand why the military is using 9 mm, and why FBI is switching to it, and why it does not apply to regular folks, unless you carry an AR15 everywhere you go.

@@garysarratt1 Advances in ammo have rendered it pretty moot now.
Quality defensive 9mm ammo closely duplicates the performance of .40 S&W, while being easier to control and giving great capacity compared to the .40
Likewise, .45 ACP is seeing a huge comeback.
.40 isn't likely to die entirely, but it's definitely not as popular as it was back in the 90s.
@@garysarratt1 I know a lot of the old timers like the 40 and can't seem to let it go. Because they are old and cranky.
@MassEffectFan113 "Because they are old and cranky" -- Well, you are apparently young and turn whichever way the wind blows because you have not earned your own opinion. At least do yourself a favor and read what I pointed you at, unless you want to keep coming across as a not-so-bright teenager.
.40 sucks
