The GLOCK 22 is one of the most common handguns out there. \\xa0It is a fullsized 40 Smith & Wesson semi-automatic handgun with a 15+1 capacity. \\xa0Many law enforcement agencies selected the GLOCK 22 as their service weapon over the last decade and a half.
\\n
\\xa0
\\n
Recently however, many police agencies have started to transition to 9mm from the 40 as the 9mm gains strong favor as a defensive handgun round.
\\n
\\xa0
\\n
This transition means that there is a glut of 40 Smith & Wesson handguns on the market and these handguns can often be found for less money than the equivilant 9mm handguns.

GLOCK likes to tout Perfection which I think is a bit of an over statement. \\xa0I would like to think about GLOCKs as Versatile. there are a tremendous number of accesories availible for GLOCK handguns including the simple parts required to convert a GLOCK 22 to a 9mm GLOCK.
\\n

\\n
It is certainly an economical and reasonable project to convert a 40 S&W GLOCK to a 9mm GLOCK. \\xa0A simple conversion barrel and some new magizines can turn an inexpensive service pistol or the 40 caliber handgun you already have into a 9mm handgun that is perfect for a back up to your carry gun, or a great handgun for serious defensive training to save wear and tear on your defensive handgun.
