I just got back from the range after testing my new Pistolgear semi-drop in barrel for my 9mm Tactical. Works awesome...I did not expect a large improvement in accuracy at 21' but it was far easier to make very small groups with the PG barrel even at close range. It really shines when shooting out past 40'. I had one failure to feed with the new barrel, but that was after 400 rounds of WWB, and the chamber was pretty dirty at that point. I doubt it will be a re-occuring issue, especially after a few hundred more rounds go through it.

Bottom line: A nicely designed barrel at a very good price. Well done Pistolgear.

Thanks for the support and kind words. It is true, you can save $50+ and get an accurate barrels. Our barrels may not have the "name" but they have what it takes to be a challenger to the best on the market.
