[rollie100]

hey
im curious, not sure if this is been posted or not...

but my questions is... The sig p226 can you swap/exchange a 9mm barrel with a 40cal barrel back and forth using the same p226.

so is the only difference between the p226 9mm from the p226 40cal the barrel?.

cheers.

No. You can swap the P226 slide assembly of the 40S&W/357Sig and the 9mm slide.

The frame is the same for the P226. You can only drop in and swap the barrels between the 40S&W and 357 SIG for the same slide.

HOWEVER, Barsto makes a 9mm barrel to fit in the 40slide.

You need slide, barrel and mags to switch between 9 & .40, or get the barsto barrel mentioned.

The ejection port on the 9mm slide is too short for the 40 to eject. You will have a world of problems. You will need a whole upper assembly as mentioned above.
