easy 9mm commander supressing

Post by teneyedoc »

So, I don't know a lot, there is a ton of info here to dissolve. But, I have decided that I want a 9mm commander for my daily carry. That being said, I'd prefer not to get into a .45 vs 9mm argument. Is it as simple as as ordering a Storm lake barrel that is extended and threaded and dropping it into a 9mm Colt Commander? I plan to order a silencer for it later, but for now I would like to get the pistol squared away so I can begin practicing the extra details carrying a 1911 involve. My backup is a sig p238 in an ankle rig, that is why I'd like to stick to one platform.

Gracias

A friend of mine had his 9mm Commander barrel extended and threaded by ADCO. It runs beautifully.

Thanks for the input, that is what I was looking for.

The situation has changed, though. I now have a RIA Midsize (4") Tactical. Can adco extend the heavy barrel on it in the same way the commander barel was extended?

I have no idea. You'd have to get hold of Steve there to find out direct.

A general rule of thumb seems to have been they can do 9mm barrels but not .45 ones.

I'll make some calls and see what can be done...wouldn't you know, as soon as I traded for what I have, a real deal Colt Combat comander in 9mm shows up on one of the local for sale boards...
