They put less drag on the bullet and therefore you get better velocity. Less wear on the barrel so it lasts longer. Better accuracy, in theory, but barely worth noting. |

from glock19.com:
Why do the .45 caliber Glocks have octagonal rifling vs the hexagonal rifling in the other calibers? The octagonal rifling provides a better gas seal in the large caliber .45 ACP. Notice how the image on the right has a lot less space between the bullet & barrel compared to the image on the left: Octagonal Rifling

I will actually answer the important question: www.glockmeister.com www.topglock.com/catalog/barrels.htm Lone Wolf Distributors Basically, you have Bar-Sto, KKM, EFK, Storm Lake, and Jarvis. I'm thinking about putting a can on my G21, so I was going to go with a Jarvis barrel threaded for Gem-Tech suppressors, but I have no actual experience with aftermarket barrels.
