WTB 460 Rowland Conversion Kit

[TheFieldJournal]

Gents,

I'm looking for a 460 Rowland kit for a Glock 21. I'd consider another model (1911, FNX, G41, etc) as well if the price was right.

Thanks!

Still looking. A XDM kit would be good too.

I don't have one but I did. It was temperamental so I sold it to a guy who handloaded and didn't mind a project. Just know what you are getting into. MN

Thanks for the heads up. I was a little worried about that. Which gun did you have it in?

I have one on a Springfield Armory “Loded” stock gun. It has been totally reliable and is quite a shooter.

I had mine on a Glock 30. The guy I sold it to reported the same type of problemswith a full sized kit as the Glock 30. Similar story from an guy at a shooting course. Common sense would indicate that changing a platform that much could get tricky. Not saying you can't make it work just be prepared to fiddle with it and run a lot of ammo through it to find any issues.

My other issue was that with the compensator and extra weight added it wasn't really easier to carry than a 5 shot 44 mag, a Glock 29 on the other hand was a nice step down in weight. Ultimately I sold that too and kept it simple with a 9mm.

I will say when it worked the 460 was more shootable than a revolver. But for similar weight/bulk I think a long barrel 10mm might make more sense. Good luck either way.
