    I can compare the HERA and the RONI, its really not even close. I allready sold the Roni...... every advantage goes to HERA except price.

    Ouch! Can you elaborate?

    Yeah, see post #209. I think there's a possibility that the barrel shroud on the Roni could interfere with firing (since the Glock action tilts the barrel upwards). Installing and racking it would let you know for sure. I know this isn't an issue on the Hera kits as the shroud has been designed in an oval shape to accommodate longer barrels and threaded compensators.

    Looks like I may have got overly excited. If I can't put a longer barrel on my glock I may end up selling it right away. What a drag. The KPOS takes a longer barrel I automatically thought the Roni did. :-( Can anyone confirm yes or no for sure in regards to the G34 barrel in the G17?

    If I had a longer barrel for my G17 I could; anyone else?. As mentioned, the Hera Glock kit does work with longer barrels, compensators, fake suppressors, etc.

    I didn't want to spend that much on a "fun gun" for 3-gun matches. My Roni is expected to arrive at my door on Monday so I guess if it doesn't workout I will sell/trade it for a KPOS. Who knows, if I get good groups at 50m without the longer barrel I may keep it.

    Just trying to help here. The CAA website video shows buddy using a real suppressor. It's flopping up and down and seems to be working fine.
    Looks like the shroud has been removed though. If you can stand the look of the G1 without the shroud it should work with a longer barrel.

    Would there be any heat issues though?

    That's a good point. I'm not sure if the shroud has inherent heat dissipation properties or if it is just for looks???

    I just had another one: without the shroud, the blast and exhaust gasses won't have anything to vector them (completely) straight out the front. Even with a longer G34 barrel, it will still be somewhat recessed inside the Roni stock.
