Looking to acquire a 10mm forest gun, anyone own a Glock 29 for this purpose? Thoughts on a .40 barrel swap for cheaper range fun? Recs for alternative compact 10mm?

Yeah I bought a 29 as a woods/city gun as I wanted something for bear/moose but also something I could conceal while riding around anchorage and not look like a potential school shooter. You can get barrel extensions for them which is pretty neat. Now if you are actually looking for a dedicated woods gun I would not go with a pistol as your primary.

Well I don't have Alaska problems - mostly pussy black bears, coyotes, and the very occasional cougar or wolf

G29 is my woods gun. KKM barrel and 200 grain underwood hardcast rounds. Small enough to ccw when you don't want to open carry when you're back in civilization. Would recommend.
i have all three of the 10mm glocks and hiking gun is still the glock 20 most of the time. the 29 is actually my edc most of the time, because why not i shoot it pretty well. the 29 velocity loss isnt actually that bad when compared to the longer barrel of the 20 or the 41. Hard cast 200gr are monsters or some of the solid brass machined projectiles i would be comfortable inna woods with

What holster is that? Used to holster on my hip but it is a pain in the ass w/ a full size overnight pack (I have an 85L Arcteryx)

kenai chest holster
I bought one for Wal-Mart carry. 29 is feels a lot thicker than it looks.

Are after market barrels a must to shoot heavier shit out of a G20 or 29?

Get the 20, not 29.
You can't barrel swap it with 40. Totally different frame size, recoil etc.
You could get a Glock 23 (.40cal) and a 357sig swap, that's a real option for a smaller lighter gun and the only swap that works reliably.
