I've got the 50 minus 5 caliber... it's close enough, really.

I have a 10mm with a .40S&W barrel and a .357 SIG barrel, so naturally I would like a .50 conversion for my .45acp Glock!

Quoted: No really, Guncrafter Industries makes a .50 conversion kit for a large-frame Glock. Aw, way to spoil my fun. Do you have one? Does anyone have one? I finally saw one in person. They wanted $650 for it. Found them online for $500... |

No I don't have one. I did read a review in GWLE or Tactical Weapons a while back––I recall the author having function issues with his test unit.

I remember testing a Kimber .22 conversion pre-release. Slide never cycled. Not once. A lot of pre-release samples are wonky...
That said, I was wondering about that... |

Regrettably, I do not recall exactly what the issue was. But I do recall the author of the review saying that the platform needed some refinement.

I wanted one.
I researched it. It's a POS (every review I could find either said so outright or you could figure it out from the testing results: no real advantage over 10mm or .45 and a lot of issues/expense/availability issues with ammo) It's sort of a bad Beowulf .50 for Glocks... Stick w/G20 and G29 10mm w/DT's |

Quoted: It still have the advantage that the bullet won't fall through a .48 hole I wanted one. I researched it.

Stick w/G20 and G29 10mm w/DT's  I'm not worried at all about expense or availability of ammo. I am interested in "a lot of issues"... What issues? |
