Bro has a vast catalogue of hand gestures
I just wanna hear him say "LETS GET READYYY TO RUMBLEEE" 😂
Read your comment to look up and see him waving his hands, like first 15 seconds of video 🤣
A animated character sells more than a stationary one 😉
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a young Sicilian male. I approve of his hand gestures.
forgot why i clicked the video, then he pulled out the .50 upper and i was like “oh yeah”. fantastic presentation, expect to take my money
Big question is does the .50 caliber is any practical on a Glock platform ? It's already a lemon caliber on a Desert Eagle despite the frame being more designed for large calibers, so I am a bit sceptical about the .50 Glock concept...
You'd be eating ketchup soup and ramen with the cost of this ammo.
First time seeing this guy, hes gifted. This stuff can get murky and confusing with so many diff numbers and calibers, especially when we add in how Glock numbers their guns, this dude explains if flawlessly, completely clear and concise, im impressed. I fumble fuck terminology all the time.
LM has been in the media-shooting sports industry for years. Videos, DVDs, internet.
Lenny is a legend- he made many vids, I believe on VHS, back in the 1980s - they were great!
It's literally no more difficult than memorizing a lock combination.
@@denbronco44 yeah ok… unless you’re exaggerating saying literally.
Skill issue.
Lenny's encyclopedic knowledge of Glock models is second to none 😆
lenny really doesnt know all that much. like the tungsten guiderods that snap in your gun he shills
Agreed… I say Glocks nomenclature is all over the place. I tried to memorize it, but it has no rhyme, or reasoning behind it. They just throw some random numbers behind a caliber. But, their products are still amazing despite the weird numbering system.

He knows enough to be one of the most recognizable faces in the 2A community. Enough to have an awesome facility in Tennessee. And enough to be a very successful businessman that’s way richer than anyone of us.
@@e.b.6766 True, just check out the Hellfire Trigger commercial he made a few decades ago.
@@e.b.6766 Speak for yourself, good sir.
I just watched Lenny’s video and learned a lot about my Glocks. I’m a retired State Trooper and have been a Glock fancier for many years. Our department switched from Smith & Wesson model 39 to Glock 22 and I have been sold on Glocks ever since. This video gave me some important insights into this firearm. I own models 21, 22 and carry my 27 on a daily basis. This is a vey versatile firearm. I know that I made the right choice. I subscribed today. Thank you!
Mr. Magill- I have been watching and enjoying your videos on CZcams for years. I don't know of ANYONE in THIS country (and probably GLOBALLY) who has done more for the promotion of the Glock line of firearms more than yourself, sir. I'm down here in Texas, but I'm glad you've found some friendly digs up in Tennessee...it is another GREAT STATE! THANKS for all that you do for the 2A community and for shooting, in general. Your combat range sounds like GREAT practice as well as a lot of fun! Continued blessings in your business efforts and hope to get to chat with you someday. God Bless you!
Lmao it's his business
Sir, he’s selling this shit. This isn’t altruism it’s sales
I completely agree. My only regret is I live in NJ and not Texas or Tennessee, lol. The only bright side is that after 50+ years we are now a shall issue state for permit to carry.
@@arthurmiceli4426im with you. I live in nj. Cant have the fun guns
Magill only sells to cops, obviously the guy doesn't believe in an individual right to bear arms and literally shows with his business he will only sell to the gun grabbing state of California
Had a glock 21 for over 26 years. Fired thousands of all kinds of ammo through it. Many near max velocity hand loads. Never cleaned it until I saw Lenny's video on how to take it apart! She's a much cleaner machine now, but this says something about not only my laziness but also Glock 21 toughness. It never jammed or missed a beat in all those years!
How do you expect us to believe that you reload your own ammo but didn't clean your gun in 26 years?
@@antonchigurh8343maybe he’s one of those guys that buys a gun and throws it in the safe forever😂
But he claimed shooting "thousands of rounds" through it... I'll call his comment moose s**t myself.
Stop the 🧢
@@antonchigurh8343the first thing you do when you buy a gun is look up how to strip it and clean it. Or is that just me?
The ballistics for the 50 GI are pretty much the same as a 45 ACP. It's just the cool factor of having a bigger bullet I guess.
Not to mention if I want a .50 cal pistol, I'll run my 7.5 inch .500 Magnum with muzzle brake or .50AE Deagle. A .50 cal Glock seems like a waste as you can't put the punch behind it without risking damage to your face or other extremities. There's a reason the .50AE Desert Eagle by Magnum Research runs a gas impingement system that is found on the M16/AR-15 platform and it weighs roughly 5 lbs.
Its a novelty thing pretty much
But a 50 cal projectile is far greater in size than 45 acp. Way more frontal surface area. So if they can push a way bigger bullet at the same or greater speeds than the smaller .45acp, that’s impressive.
In Range tested Gun Crafters Incorporated custom 1911 and Glock 20 in GI 50. The 230 grain bullet could almost flip a spinner in 2 hits. It will flip it in 3 hits. A 45 will usually do it in 6 or 7 hits.
The terminal ballistics of the GI 50 in 180 grain should be able to drop someone even wearing a vest. It might not kill when hitting the vest, it should knock an opponent on his back.
Bingo...and the ammo is proprietary and expensive
A big plus for my Glock 19 is that I have a .22 rimfire conversion slides and shoot all day very cheaply.
I LOVE THE 357 sig , I have the conversion for my second gen g22 and the round is great , I shoot it at the range at 100 yards and it only takes a few rounds to get your trajectory down and we shoot 20” pumpkins consistently with the 357 sig at 100 yards, great for boar hunting too , the round is so underrated by some folks but I know from experience it’s an all around awesome round
My second favorite
My edc is g31 gen 4, I live and will die by .357 sig.........I use Underwood Ammo 90 grain xtreme defender with the Lehigh defense round....1700 fps or more with 578 ft lbs of muzzle energy, I'm telling you it's an extremely accurate and very powerful round, Underwood has nickel plated brass casings and it cycles extremely smooth
@@SOLOLIKETHECUP212 see, their are smart folks left lol , that 90 grain defender is smoking laser speeds I tell ya!!!!!! I have a g31 too and I think all around the 357 sig is my definite favorite go to , I have head shot many wild boars 🐗 on the run with mine and they drop right in their tracks every single time
It’s neat but it’s barely alive as a caliber
@@SoccerVJ2011 I’m wondering what makes you say it’s dying? There are a lot of folks that like it , it’s a hot round and it’s been stacked up to and beyond rounds that were thought to be better and proven different , I know what I like and until someone gives me a better excuse to not use it I’m gonna keep on enjoying my .357 sig immensely
Very informative, love how he explained stuffs. Knowledge is second to none.
Shooting 9 out of 40 cal mags is something I have done and it causes random stove piping. Some mags were worse then others but it was like a few malfunctions a mag. You can bend the front of the mag guids inwardly and then it will function flawlessly.
You can also use 9mm mags.
Too much “sales pitchy BS” info in this video. No one should practice with 115gr ball 9mm bc it’s cheap then load 180gr JHP for their self defense set up. 🤦🏻♂️
@@ANHON888 I agree
@@ft90702 Sometimes you need to work with what you have.
Honestly this is a really good tip if you want to train with malfunctions
I have that same gen 3 22 .40 cal, great gun, extremely reliable. I do have a 9 mm conversion, I'd recommend getting a 9 mm extractor as well. The casings barely plop out with the .40 cal extractor. I'll be looking at the .357 next...
Love your videos they have taught me a lot about my Glock, keep the content coming brotha!
Another great video from GS! Thanks Lenny!
Been running 9mm conversions on my G23 and G27 for a while. Nary a misfeed. So reliable the converted G23 was my carry gun until recently, and now it's my home defense gun. Initially I converted for cheaper ammo/more range time. I just shoot 9mm better so I just don't ever shoot them as .40. Great video. I'd love to get some range time with that .50 cal.
same, but g22 & went with threaded barrel for that extra half inch bcuz i run +p+ underwood & that gives me nearly 1600fps from 90gr solid coppers. its my carry when hog hunting, they limit your mag cap to 5 in a semiauto rifle but no restriction on handgun.
@@RichardCranium321 had the threaded on the G27. 👍 Sold it to a friend recently. I use the Underwood Xtreme Defender myself. For hunting I'd guess you use the Penetrator though.
One reason why the G23 is the best, with conversion barrels you can fire 4 different calibers from the same gun.
40, 9mm, 358sig, and 22
Really a great SHTF gun just for that reason alone
@KappaKiller108 I'd argue the G32 is a hair better than the G23 for this purpose. 1) Although they're the same gun, the 32 says "357" on the slide, which is inherently cooler. Okay, that's subjective... but 2) A .40 conversion barrel in a 32 is inherently better than the stock .40 in the 23; the chamber better supports the case head and you get peace of mind with reloads.
Bro has the perfect voice for explaining guns all day (bob ross of guns😂) i could listen to him explains guns I already know just because😂
This is awesome!! I’m not sure how many others feel the same….. but I think a good many folks probably agree… a 22 conversion for a 43X would be AWESOME!!!!!
Yes!
AND with a threaded barrel to boot 😁
I know all this, Lenny is just a cool dude! I still remember him taking an Order for a Trigger Years ago… Super Nice Guy, Answered some questions… Even gave me a Deal since I was Active Duty at the time.
Another GREAT video..Fantastic product..heard about these “ GlockStore Conversion Barrel” few years ago…I’m like WOW..really? Ordered the 9mm for my GLOCK 27(snappy..yes). Worked great. Got one for my GLOCK22 also. Same stellar performance…Lenny, you do good. A+
Thank you Lenny for the awesome video I own a Glock 43x and I think it's awesome
Lenny is such a cool guy I visited Nashville and got the honor to meet him at the glockstore!
Another good training video about GLOCK GUNS. Take care and be safe. See you on your next video.
Glock also makes a .380
Excellent presentation!
Very good. Now we need to try with .50 BMG
Glock, .....pointable? Hilarious 😂
I don’t find them very pointable or ergonomic either. Reliable, like a Honda Civic. Imo as pointable as a plastic brick.
I own a bunch of different guns. I love every one of my guns, because each one shoots a little different giving me a different experience at the range. But my Glock 35 is my ride or die gun. It’s the first gun I’ll pickup if shit ever hit the fan. Glocks are like my old Honda. Easy to work and maintain it, not the prettiest out there but super reliable, and the best part is the parts don’t drain the bank. 🤙
So cool. Thanks for sharing all your swappable products🎉😂❤
I returned a 45 to 10mm double diamond conversion barrel recently since it wouldn't eject 10mm rounds out of my gen3 Glock30. I ended up buying a Glock 29. Maybe an ejector swap would have helped, but even Lenny here is saying that just the 10mm conversion barrel would work. On my Glock 30, it literally would drop the round straight down the magazine well every time I would rack the slide to test the ejection
I got a gen 4 idk if it would work
run a stiffer guide rod.
I think it’s cuz the 10mm is just a lil smaller so wen I racks it’s does really sit right bcz it’s lose cuz it’s slimmer
Lenny you're an asset to the shooting community and a class act indeed
love glock as a platform for being able to do this. love this guy. i went with a bar sto barrel but for the other internals i always shop at glock store.
Excellent video, great job, thank you.
Like always great content
Super very nice video ,thanks!!!!
Thanks for another awesome video Brother!~John
One thing I wanted to bring up but its not a big deal, but you can still carry that .45 for bear defense but not the .45 ACP but .450 SMC by Double Tap, and that is pretty much on par with the 10mm but at 230 grains moving at 1200fps.
Awesome video Lenny! I was hoping the .50 conversion would work with my G20! I probably will be buying a G21 now.
John Klatt, thank you so much for this info!
Had no idea, very cool
I have a glock 19 one of my first handguns I've owned! But ima have to say Taurus g2c/g23 optic ready are really soild handguns that shoot and perform just like my glock! No jams at all and have over 3k rounds through mine.
“Just as good” 😂😂😂
Awesome I'm going to be ordering mine ASAP
M&p has these conversation barrels as well. The ejector on the m&p doesn’t have the same issue. This is cool no matter your brand. On my m&p the 9mm conversion barrel was so much better quality that I purchased a new 40 caliber barrel from them as well. 2” group at 40 yards better. The factory barrel was on the paper at 40 yards… that’s about all I have to say about that.
Where could I buy the conversion barrels I wanna get the 10mm m&p but want to get a barrel for the 40 for it
Great presentation
Absolutely amazing
Killer knowledge. Mind blowing. Im gonna have some content to bring to the scuttlebutt!
Thank you for your service 🙏
If you look at ballistic gel tests the .357 gets as much as 10-11” more penetration and the wound channel is not much difference, the bullet post fire is all around more stable in the 357 and mic testing the post fire bullet the 10mm 200 grain was the most stable but both weights of 357 tested mic was about .517 and the 10 mm about.613 so the difference isn’t much but the 357 and penetration is superior, so I’m gonna keep using my 357 sig with pride ! 😄
Don't try to save yourself with that round if ever you are confronted by a Lnyx or that Mountain Lion ♠️ In think that 10mm 200 gain is great for those incidents or self - defense 😉
@@MichaelWilliams-nu6lv I’m confident enough that I can use a 357 sig on a mountain lion , I’ve been hunting for many years and I’ve shot 500 pound Russian boars with a longbow and wooden arrows that I made and many boars with a 357 sig in full charge coming right at me and they are hanging on the wall now , you must not have much practical experience if you think a 357 won’t kill a cat , you ever been charged by a cougar ? I’m confident, I’ve been around for a while , it’s called skill and wisdom
@@MichaelWilliams-nu6lv ballistics testing proves that penetration is superior over 10mm by 10 inches and more every time , I’m fine trusting a 357
@@DavidWilliams-wr4wb Haha dude is crazy for thinking that .357 will be a pebble to a cat
@@1xBossup I know right ? I’ve been hunting a long time and I don’t know of too many animals in North America that can handle taking a 357 and walking away
Really cool stuff.
Pro tip…
When I installed the .40-to-9 conversion barrel in my G35, I also wound up needing to install a G34 recoil spring due to stovepiping, since the 9mm doesn’t produce sufficient energy for the G35’s slide to travel completely rearward against the resistance of the .40 recoil spring. Upon installation of the G34 recoil spring, however, she became an absolute machine set up for 9mm. Perfection.
With that said, I also installed the .40-to-9 conversion barrel in my G27 with no need for a different recoil spring. Runs flawlessly as is.
This is the kind of guy tim allen based his character on in home improvement a good old fashioned salesman who seems to love the products he gets to sell and a good guy to have as a neighbor
I’d love to see a 400 CorBon barrel for the 21, 30 & 30S.
50 cal glock with a grip and switch is a nice build for the range
I ordered a .40 double diamond back barrel, thinking it was a 9mm conversion barrel. Luckily I was able to cancel the .40 and re order a new glock 23x9mm barrel conversion one !
i want this guy as my grandpa he would be a really good teacher with stuff
wow, great vid
jeff
The .50 caliber round uses slow burning powder. A minimum barrell length of 8" is required. For that round to achieve full potential.
Great video
I really like the ability to swap out calibers, but my first "multi cal" pistol is an FNX... (I like the hammer) I was able to convert from 9 to 40 and also on the glock frame so it is able to go "Up" in caliber not just "Down" also my son loves the 22lr option and I do to especially for cost per round.
Just wanted to add that the 40sw can be fired from a stock 10mm barrel and mag without conversation and that the .357 is a rimmed cartridge and not the same as the ".357"in this video. It is actually called .357sig which is a totally different cartridge
Make a threaded 10mm conversion barrel for the Glock 30 please!
With that barrel length of a Glock 30 in 10mm you would be loosing such a large amount of performance that it would be a waste.
@@nexusofice9135 Nah, I'd be gaining a half inch of length which would give more velocity. Not as much as a full length Glock 20 but pretty close (4.4-4.5 inches vs 4.6 in G20). Additionally, I can put different muzzle devices on it and shoot .40 S&W through it.
say goodbye to dessert eagle
say hello to a .50 glock lol
Not gonna lie, I flinched when he pulled the trigger in my direction hahahaha
I'm truly excited about the GR 115F! I really hope civilians can own it, I heard it's only military at the moment?
Started out in the .40 cal world because of the conversion factors. I use a G35 with a P80 frame .40 as my carry sidearm with hardcast ammunition when hunting. I have a G27 with a .357 conversion barrel as my EDC and home protection. I think I have several conversion barrels in 9mm for both.
This is amazing
OMG! This is like Christmas!
I love that 10mm round but since I know that I don't have to buy a separate Firearm just for the 10mm I can get that conversion kit for my Glock model ( 41 ) ❤❤❤❤❤
I was thinking of getting the .22 convention for target practice
outstanding!
That silver barrellooks sweet on that 😁
Been waiting for a 9mm conversion barrel for Glock 27 Gen5
You should have on your website all the different guns and conversions. Like a list
You have intrigued me
Great caliber had the kit upper years ago . Great idea , but good luck finding and paying for 50 gi ammo it ain’t cheap
Load your g43x or g26 or g19 with Liberty Ammunition Ultra Light and get 2040fps from a 9mm from a 50 grain projectile. Less than half the weight, in a rifle speed and effect, with huge permanent wound channel and cavity with less than 1/4 the recoil. And the round invariably fragments and sinters to a 12 inch spread.
Genuine question is this liberty ammo is so good why do no police departments issue this ammo?
i think a .50 g26 gen 3 would be one of the coolest pocket pipes ever
Nobody asked you keep your homosexual thoughts to yourself
@@habibifather7681 go back to gta bud one day youll be old enough
I like that Conversion 50 gi. To bad you don't have a 24 round mag for the 50 gi..👍
I’ve had my 50 caliber conversion for about a year now and really like it. My only complaint is the cost of Ammo
Their are deals if you buy 2 or 3 boxes 🤷♂️
Everything on you guys store is sold out been waiting for my insert piece for like 3 weeks for my +2 extender
Lenny MaGlock with another dope video!!! GFL!!!
I'm late watching this, I have a G20 and love it! Will the 50 conversion fit my G20 or only the G21 like you mention?
Any need to swap out for a stiffer recoil spring when stepping up to 10mm?
Ok, I need a chart for this!!
I would love if they made the .22lr conversion for the 43X
When I was stationed in Alaska, my buddy killed a huge grizzly with one shot from his 45, with a pin round. You remember the jaggity hollow points. With his left hand. That's how you know he was a stud. Holding his fishing pole in his right hand.
Take a shot everytime he says "BRAH"
Used to be able to buy a conversion kit to change a G30 to .460 Rowland, which gives it basically the same ballistics as a .44 mag. Not sure if it’s available anymore.
I was thinking about those a minute ago. I wish it would have gained more popularity because I remember seeing that around 8 years ago or so
It doesn't take much to run 45 Super
Just a 24lb recoil spring. May need a barrel with a fully supported chamber.
Same mags, same same slide.
45 super is 230gr @1200fps and kicks!
Hornady TAP makes 220gr 45+P at 950fps from a stock glock 21/30/41
Good reliable daily carry round.
@@kassenz I didn't even know there was a 45 super and I've seen some odd and rare calibers before. Personally, I have a .455 webley and moon clips that allow it to shoot 45 acp
I assume when you put in a conversion barrel you should also use an extractor for the different caliber in you slide.
Not all the time. I would highly suggest using the same magazine followers, magazines for the barrel caliber. I had a few flubs-errors with factory .357sig FMJ in my new stainless steel GS barrel: Glock 22 gen 4. I replaced the Glock follower, tube in 1 mag. 15rd .357. Factory Hornady Critical Duty 135gr .357sig fed & cycle 💯. I added a few drops of Slip 2000 EWL too. Glock after market converted barrels can work well BUT you might stay with factory OEM barrels, mags for duty 👮🏼♂️ or ccw.
been doing all 3 for years. buy one gun & 2 barrels then shoot 3 calibers. now i wish they would do the same for 45acp, 10mm, & 7.5FK (or 7.62x25tokarev) with the Glock model 21
DAMN !! Lenny will try to sell you ANYTHING, no matter how outrageous. 😮😅😂
How about a range video for the .50 cal conversion, please?
Nice. And It gets a lot lighter every time you pull the trigger .. almost empty= not heavy
Don’t own a Glock but I want one. Cool video sir thanks for the information
Are you saying the US Government is not above board?? 😂😂😂😂. Great video, 50 cal coming up.
Hearing someone talk about something they know so much about is really entertaining
@glock store does that .50cal slide also work on the glock 21sf as well
Learned a lot today and I'm really on the Glock bandwagon now 😂 😅 but the CZ-75 has a lower bore axis tbh.
Thanks great information.
love the videos but what do you think about a 5.7mm for the glock 43, 19, 19X conversion just a thought
I don't see how that would work. Those bottleneck rounds are long and I'm not even sure they would fit in that 9mm mag well with the mag in. And I'm not sure they can design a barrel to compensate for the angle that the round is seated at in the magazine. It would probably need a different recoil spring and extractor. Actually, you would have to basically rebuild the whole gun because the hole in the side of the slide isn't long enough for a 5.7 to eject from a glock so you would need a whole new upper. Might as well just buy a gun chambered in 5.7 like the new smith and wesson unless glock releases a 5.7...
5.7 is too long. It would take a redesign.
#13:00 that sound so nice XD also got to say love these vids plz keep them going
When will y’all have more g20 10mm-40 barrels in . Definitely need a gold one
Great video👍👍👍! Glock Rules👍👍🤟🤟
