NineX19’s Vapor Glock ported barrel and slide combos can and will substantially change your shooting experience.
Made for Glock 17 and 19 platforms (Generations 3, 4, and 5) these ported barrel and slide combos are CNC-machined in the United States from stress-relieved, heat-treated 416R stainless steel (the barrels), available in wear and corrosion-resistant nitrided finishes, and offer a precision, OEM-like fit.
But these are just specifications. One of these combos will substantially change your shooting experience, and greatly for the better. Here’s how.
Recoil Reduction
The most important aspect of these Vapor Glock ported barrel and slide combos is the ported, matched design.
Both the barrel and slide feature matched porting, that, in lieu of a compensator, redirects the manner in which gasses are ported near the muzzle.
This, in turn, substantially reduces felt recoil, without any other alterations needed to the gun, or in terms of the ammo you shoot.
This built-in recoil-reducing feature helps keep muzzle flip to a minimum, which in turn keeps your sights trained more closely on target, enabling faster, more accurate follow-up shots.
A Clearer Sight Picture
Now let’s talk about one of the downsides to some conventional compensators that port the gasses directly upwards as opposed to obliquely, off to the side.
While this conventional, “direct-up” configuration does directly counteract muzzle flip, it also clouds your sight picture with a burst of hot gas.
There is a reason that the ports on the Vapor barrel/slide combos are set off at an angle; this configuration splits the gasses around your sights and sight picture, keeping the picture clear for faster realignment and more rapid follow up shots.
Add Optics, Effortlessly
NineX19’s Vapor barrel and slide combos are “combat cut,” making them optic-ready for red dots and other sights that have an RMR-pattern footprint.
This eliminates any custom work associated with upgrading the slide to accommodate such optics, and as an added bonus, these slides feature rear sight index dimpling, in case you wanted to add screw-in iron sights.
Legal in States with Threaded Barrel Restrictions
There are, unfortunately, some states, in which threaded barrels are restricted. Some of these are Illinois, Connecticut, and Washington, although this post is not to serve as legal advice and there may be others.
With that said, since these barrels are integrally ported and therefore not threaded, they are legal in jurisdictions in which threaded barrels are restricted.
