This video reviews the Aim Surplus ported barrel and slide combo for Glock Gen 3-4 frames, highlighting its performance and value. The reviewer, who paid full retail, found the combo to offer excellent shooting characteristics, significantly reducing felt recoil and improving return to zero. While the machining is simple and cost-effective, potential downsides include minor holster compatibility issues due to less aggressive slide chamfering and a slight decrease in reliability with steel-cased ammunition, though brass-cased ammunition performed flawlessly.
