I know the 23 is more common, but I picked up a like new 22 for a good price and am looking at converting it to 9mm.

For those of you with a 22 conversion barrel, which brand did you go with? Im leaning towards s3f, but would like to hear experience from others as well. Thanks in advance.

I have a Storm Lake which works well for me.

I use mostly Lone Wolf, but have some Storm Lake as well.  Both good brands.

If it's just for range use a barrel and mags are all I need.  If it's for defense then I change out the extractor, ejector and firing pin.

I too recently bought a G22 RTF and bought a LWD 357sig barrel  and have backordered an AlphaWolf 9mm threaded conversion barrel.  In my limited research, they were the best on price.  LWD barrels are actually made by Dasan Machining while the AlphaWolf barrels are made by Lone Wolf R&D.  Both are 416 stainless.

Remember to pick up some G17 and G18 mags with your conversion barrel.

Lone Wolf... I even used .40 mags and it was 100%

I used one in a lax ruled uspsa for a season and never had a jam.   The 40 extractor will roll the brass out rather than throw it but never an issue.

I have an S3F conversion barrel in my Glock 22 and I couldn't be happier with it.  I shoot it for fun, carry with it, and shoot it in matches.  No malfunctions yet.

Thanks for the replies, I didn't think the Lone Wolf would be so popular but I guess they have been in the game longer than some others.

I have plenty of 9mm mags already, and don't plan on swapping ejectors unless I have issues.
