It's a custom Glock 21 extended barrel it's 5.6" in a aftermarket 5" slide. Wanted to see if I liked the look of a little barrel sticking out ala Beretta 92. Not so much 😆 so I want to flush cut with the slide and 👑 🤙🏽

I dont own any pistols. But have a lot of custom rifles built. The gunsmiths i worked with who are top notch at customer service and build quality are

Long rifles inc, chad dixon
Short action customs, mark Gordon
Area 419 team
Bugholes

Like someone said. Good work aint cheap though.

Midway has/had some Storm Lake Glock barrels on sale for $80--pretty good barrels at a ridiculously low price (retail is like 180-200 for these, I think).
Might be worth a try.  I've used SL 1911 barrels before and they're good.

BTW I bought the last 1911 .45 barrel Midway had on sale a day or two ago.

Nice.  I could probably do it, but I am no gunsmith and can't guarantee it won't be destroyed in the process.
