Dose anyone have a glock 25 or 28 (380 auto) in their collection? If so are they hard to get?
You would have to buy the barrel also since the .380 is a 9x17mm I believeunit44justin said:Ok so crazy thought here. Since a .380 and 9mm utilize the same bullet just different size casing wouldn't the G26 be able to shoot .380 with the use of a G28 mag? I looked on the glock website and the 2 have the same specs.
If I'm not mistaken the 17 is the length of the casing and bullet. The 9 is the diameter if the bullet, the bullet in a 380 and a 9mm should be the same thing.G29sf said:You would have to buy the barrel also since the .380 is a 9x17mm I believe
Just curious is to why would you want a .380 anyway when you can easily have a 9x19? Like you said, they're almost the same size, but have you priced the .380 ammo lately? Very pricey! Gimme the 9x19 over the .380 anyday! JMO!Ok so crazy thought here.

Yes I would assume you would have to get a lighter recoil assembly than the 9mm as the 380 is a lighter load.The bullet is the same diameter but it would have to jump the gap to reach the rifling of the barrel. I don't know if it is a good idea but I have heard of people doing the same thing by firing .40s&w in a 10mm barrel. I won't be doing that with my G20 though I have a conversion barrel for that purpose.
I would also wonder if it would cycle the slide as the 25/28 operate on a different recoil system.
I don't want to shoot .380 out of my Glocks. People have just been growing fascination in the G25 and G28 I think just to say they have one and others don't (bragging rights). I have a SigP238 and yes it cost even more to shoot than any of my other firearms but it is still a blast to shoot. It is also a nice carry piece when I am out being more active like playing golf when carrying my G23 IWB or OWB just isn't very comfortable with the constant twisting of the body.Just curious is to why would you want a .380 anyway when you can easily have a 9x19?
