I understand that this is a conversion that is easy to do. I've ordered the drop-in .357 barrel.
This weekend a Glock Armorer asked me if my model 23 had a newer "reinforced frame" that would take the extra slide/frame impact of the .357 Sig. If not, he didn't recommend the conversion.
He showed me a frame with a small amount of metal at the front of the frame rails half way up from the dust cover to the top of the frame rails when viewed dead on from the front. My second generation model 23 does not have this reinforcement.
Another Glock armorer said not a problem - go for it.
Any info, advice, discussion? I'm inclined to just try the conversion anyway.
