 | Will the conversion kit fit the new Gen4 Glocks? |
 | No. The Gen4 uses a different recoil system than the other full size Glocks. Unfortunately, the Gen4 Glock is not legal in California. Until we can get an exemption to bring a gun into state we have nothing to work with.
|
|
| Are magazines and other parts in stock? |
| Yes, magazines and parts are in stock.
|
|
| Can you tell me which dealer will have one of your kits in stock? |
| Unfortunately, we cannot. We ship to a distributor who then sells to the dealer so we would have no way of knowing which dealers recently received kits.
|
|
| I wanted to purchase conversion kit directly from Advantage Arms, however, the website won't let me. Why is this? |
| We have temporarily suspended Retail Sales for all of our conversion kits. This is being done while we get caught up with our distributor. During this time, anyone wishing to purchase a conversion kit, will need to do so through a dealer. We do not have an estimated date as to when retail sales will resume.
|
|
| What type of ammo is recommended? |
| My first choice would be MinMags 40 grain solid, not hollow points. After that I would recommend Remington Golden Bullets in either 40 grain solid or 36 grain hollow points. Federal AutoMatch also works very well. Printable

| Do I need to lubricate my conversion kit. |
| Yes. We recommend that you put a drop of oil on each of the slide rails and one drop on each of the 3 flat surfaces on the barrel. Spread the oil with your finger. Printable
|
|
| Is there any ammo that you do not recommend? |
| We do not recommend Stingers or any other Hyper velocity ammo. Also, the kits do not function very well with Federal bulk pack or PMC ammo. DO NOT use Remington Thunderbolts as they will lead up the barrel. We do not recommend any Winchester ammo.
|
|
| I'm having some issues with my kit not feeding or ejecting the rounds. What do you suggest? |
| 1. Use the recommended ammo.
2. Your Glock should be factory stock. No aftermarket parts like the connector or trigger bar. 3. Lubricate your kit, it will not function properly if you're shooting it dry.
4. Watch for "limp wristing".
5. Do not allow any portion of your hand to touch the slide while shooting. To see the WRONG way to hold you conversion kit please

|
| Can I Dry Fire my conversion kit? |
| Dry Firing is not recommended and should only be done when it's required to remove the conversion slide from the frame.
|
|
| How do I adjust my rear sight? |
| To move the point of aim left, move the blade to the left by turning the windage screw clockwise.
To lower the point of aim, move the blade lower using the elevation screw. The elevation screw will turn 180 degree's, moving the sight from its lowest point to its highest point. You will need to turn the elevation screw and watch closely to see what direction the sight is moving. Click Here for an illustration.

| Most of our customers report 2 inch groups at 25 yards.
|
|
| Can I get an extended barrel with a 1/2-28 thread on the muzzle end? |
| Yes/No. Our barrels are only 7/16 in diameter at the muzzle so the barrel
cannot be threaded 1/2-28. However, we do make a threaded barrel and adaptor so
you can use your favorite 1/2-28 threaded accessories. This is currently
available for the following models: 17-22, 19-23, 20-21 and 26-27.
