This video reviews a custom Glock 19, dubbed a "Roland Special," with an ATEi slide, KKM barrel, and comp.

While the muzzle blast was manageable, the reviewer noted a strong negative reaction to inhaling the fumes when firing from retention, recommending against extensive training in this manner. The reviewer concluded the setup could function as a fighting pistol but highlighted the ammo sensitivity, cost of using appropriate ammo for training, and the difficulty in cleaning the comp as drawbacks.
