Anybody here use their products? I am considering one of their S&W Shield .40 to 9mm barrel conversion kits. 416 stainless steel Melonite treated.

I looked at Lone Wolf but their barrel is threaded for a suppressor or muzzle break. I use this as a carry gun so the threaded barrel is unnecessary and the additional length is unwanted.

I bought one of the Remsport 1911 9MM barrels from them a couple years ago. It required fitting in my particular gun, but was very nicely machined in and out, and is obviously a quality barrel. I bought it to convert one of my 38 Supers to 9MM. Since fitting the barrel,and using a 9MM magazine, with no other changes, I have used a wide variety of 9MM ammunition in that particular pistol. I have literally never experienced a malfunction, Not One. Were I needing another barrel for some project, I would definitely consider another barrel from TR Enabling.

I have a .40 to .357Sig barrel from Remsport. Fits very well, no adjustment necessary. Seems very accurate as well.

While I cannot swear to it, I believe I bought one of their 40 to 357 Sig conversion barrels for my S&W shield. The price I paid was the price quoted on their website, and I've never seen another conversion barrel for my shield. That said, the barrel fit perfectly but did not function in my gun. With all my magazines (3, if one round was loaded it would chamber correctly. Load the magazines up as you would normally and the top round jammed into the feed ramp. I was unhappy but just wrote it off.

Thank you to all who answered. I went with the TR Enabling barrel.

They ran a Labor Day special that discounted the barrel twenty dollars and included a S&W 8 round 9mm magazine. I could not pass that up.

Yesterday was the first time I have had time to go to the range, the Harley dealership I work at part time is closing so you can imagine we are busy with things associated with this.

A quick clean and oiling of the barrel. I did pick up an additional 8 round magazine, another genuine S&W.

Using Winchester white box. First round through was a single shot, wanted to make sure it chambered, fired and ejected without any glitches.
After that, loaded full magazines. Total 100 rounds put through it with no glitches.

Accuracy, well the same issue I've had before, a bit to the left,still close enough to the bulls eye, same as when firing .40's. Not sure if it is me or the sights but next week I'll take it to the gun shop I casually work at and have the 'smith look at it. Maybe set the sights to compensate, that could be the answer.

I was pleasantly surprised, I expected to need some tweaking to make it work.
