If you’re looking to buy a Glock 22 threaded barrel online from GorillaMachining.com, you want something that’s accurate, durable, and simple to install. Gorilla Machining offers purpose-built replacement and conversion barrels for the Glock 22 (.40 S&W) that are CNC-machined from high-grade materials, come threaded for muzzle accessories, and are designed as drop-in replacements for Gen 1–4 Glock frames — making them one of the fastest ways to upgrade your G22 for suppressed shooting or to accept compensators/flash hiders. 

Why choose a Gorilla Machining Glock 22 threaded barrel?

Gorilla Machining’s Glock 22 threaded barrels are marketed as precision, drop-in replacements that match or exceed factory fit and finish. Key selling points include: precision CNC machining from 416R stainless (or equivalent gun-barrel quality steel) for long life and consistent accuracy; a drop-in design that avoids gunsmithing for most users; and included thread protectors so your muzzle threads stay safe when accessories aren’t installed. These advantages make Gorilla Machining barrels a practical, affordable upgrade for defensive, duty, or range pistols. 

Specs & compatibility (what to look for)

When you shop for a Glock 22 threaded barrel at GorillaMachining.com pay attention to these core specs:

• Caliber / Fit: .40 S&W — specifically engineered for Glock 22 (Gen 1–4) platforms. 

• Material: 416R stainless steel or equivalent high-grade barrel steel for durability and corrosion resistance. 

• Thread pattern: Available thread pitches vary by model (common options for G22 barrels include 9/16×24 and 1/2×28 or metric patterns depending on the accessory you plan to mount) — confirm the thread spec on the product page before ordering.

• Finish options: Natural polished stainless or black nitride / SBN finishes are typically offered. 

• Installation: Drop-in design — most owners report the barrel installs without the need for gunsmithing on compatible Glock slides. 

Always confirm the exact variant on the Gorilla Machining product listing before checkout (thread size and finish are the two most common differentiators). If you plan to use a suppressor or a specific compensator, match the barrel’s thread pattern to that accessory.

Buying tips — match threads, confirm length, and check warranties

1. Match the thread pitch to your accessory. Suppressors and compensators use several thread standards — double-check whether your can requires 9/16×24, 1/2×28, or another pitch. Gorilla Machining’s product pages list thread specs — confirm there. 

2. Decide on finish and corrosion resistance. If you shoot in harsh conditions or carry the pistol, a black nitride or SBN coated barrel can offer extra surface protection. 

3. Consider conversion barrels if you want 9mm options. If your goal is cheaper range ammo, look for threaded conversion barrels that allow a Glock 22 to safely shoot 9mm (these are sold by some manufacturers). Make sure the conversion barrel is explicitly compatible with your slide and magazines. 

4. Check return policy and warranty. Reputable barrel sellers will offer a limited warranty and clear return terms; review the Gorilla Machining product page for those details. 

Legal & compliance note — know your local and federal rules

A critical, non-negotiable part of buying threaded barrels and related muzzle devices is understanding legality in your jurisdiction. A threaded barrel itself is a firearm part and lawful in most U.S. jurisdictions — however, adding a suppressor (silencer) to that threaded barrel is regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA). If you plan to purchase a suppressor, you must follow ATF transfer/registration rules (ATF forms differ based on transaction type) and typically obtain an approved ATF transfer (Form 4) or register via Form 1 for making NFA devices — and historically a tax stamp applied. ATF rules and processing times can change, so check ATF guidance and trusted NFA resources before purchasing suppressors or related regulated items.

Helpful reading on the NFA process and expected processing times is available from ATF resources and reputable silencer dealers — if a suppressor is part of your plan, factor in paperwork, background checks, and waiting periods before you expect to take possession.

Performance & accuracy — what to expect

A properly made 416R stainless barrel will generally improve consistency and could produce better groups than a worn factory barrel. Many customers report that precision-machined barrels from reputable makers deliver excellent accuracy and repeatable performance, especially when paired with high-quality factory or match ammo. Gorilla Machining emphasizes tight tolerances and quality control on its threaded barrels, which is why they market them as “match-grade” drop-in upgrades. 

Quick buying checklist

• Confirm your Glock generation (Gen 1–4 fit is common for G22 barrels). 

• Verify thread pitch and intended accessory compatibility. 

• Choose finish (stainless vs nitride). 

• Read the product page for warranty/returns and included accessories (thread protector, etc.).
