Was curious if running a suppressor on an extended pistol barrel would cause problems. I dont mean a barrel where only the threading extends past the slide. I was thinking more along the lines of a threaded 6inch barrel on a Glock 17 or 19.

Would having that much of the barrel extended and having a suppressor hang off it cause reliability issues?

You might have issues with the suppressor booster trying to do its job.

Wouldnt the booster help with that issue though?

Depends on suppressor too. Weight can become a factor as well as spring weight
