Be careful
The problem with buying the XL Glock 19 Slide is Brownells doesn’t have any barrels to complete the slide… I bought 5 slides before I learned they can not be completed. I guess you can throw them at the target or bad guy…very upsetting and expensive!!? Usually Brownells is very customer driven… If anyone has a solution for barrel & recoil spring I’d appreciate any ideas. Thank you
