P226 40 S&W to 9mm

[strider007]

Hey guys...just wondering if anyone out there has converted their 40 S&W SIG P226 to a 9mm. If so, is it just as easy as swaping in a 40 to 9 conversion barrel, or are there any other mods involved?

Thats it..You may have to use 9mm mags if the 40mags dont retain the rounds, which is often the case, especially for reliability.

Ok, sounds easy enough. Now, can I use a factory SIG 9mm barrel, or does it have to be a "conversion" barrel...like a Barsto or other after market barrel?
