I had problems with my G3C taking AAC 124 grain XTP 9mm. So, I decided to upgrade to Lakeline's barrel. It works great for everything that didn't work well with the original G3C barrel. I didn't shoot off a bench, but from standing the group sizes are the same or better (it depends on ammo). It even handles 147 grain 9mm reloads from the gun range that the original barrel struggled with. I sometimes train with my carry ammo so I can switch to the AAC 9mm XTP's and pay for the barrel in about 100 to 200 rounds (compared to other ammo loaded with Hornady).

Our new G3c ran target ammo perfectly but wouldn't chamber defense ammo. Decided to try a replacement barrel first (which in this case is a huge upgrade). Received the barrel in less than 3 days. Only required VERY minimal fit work, which since I'm a machinist was no possible. It took less than 20 minutes total. It did include very easy to follow directions. But if you're not up to that you can get a smith to do it. It runs all ammo perfectly now. The shot groups are incredible. I'm not the best shooter, but it grouped my 3 yard and 5 yard in less than 3". Less than 5" at 15 yards and less than 7" out to 25 yards. The machining quality is VERY good!

This dropped right into my G2C. No fitting necessary. Would be better if the thread protector was included.

I purchase this barrel couple weeks ago and tested it right out of the package on a G2C and is very accurate directly in the center of the target. Had 1 inch pattern 7 yrds and less then 2 inch pattern at 15 yrds.
