Stumbled upon some Lone Wolf barrels for a Glock G20. The 9x25 Dillon caught my eye but the package deal for it, two 40 cal conversion barrels, and a threaded 10mm barrel was too good to say no to. Now I have 9x25 dies and a 9x25 barrel. Now I NEED a G20.

Looked through the shop for a nice used Gen 3 or Gen 4 G20. Haven't seen one yet. There are Gen 5s on the shelf but that new gun price aspect and the added complexity of the ambi slide stop kills me. Then there are those Gen 5 added cuts on the front of the slide to draw in the Ninjas but I see simply holster eaters.

Do you have older Dillon 9x25 dies? Most or all of them had a nasty flaw that would cause case mouth issues.
If you're affected they will give you an RMA. Here's what I wrote to Dillon:
When forming new unfired brass the finished ID of the mouth is .330 and there is an odd bell and stippled effect on the OD of the case mouth.
Also, It requires another operation to open the case mouth resulting in some initial case attrition from neck cracks.
So, I moved all of my case forming to a carbide 10mm FL die, and RCBS .357 Sig size die to size and expand the neck.

Hope you find a good used one Axe! I've been checking several local shops, can find the Gen 5s but not many G3s or 4s.

FWIW dropped one of the barrels into a Gen 4 G21 this morning. Fits like the 9mm conversion barrels in my 40 Cal Glocks.. Betting it runs like the conversions too. I'll check tomorrow.

Not expecting die issues. My 9x25 die set is at least 30 years old. Got them from an active USPSA competitor that loaded with them extensively when the 9x25 was cool....
