Im not sure whether it's been asked yet or not, but anyway...is there a barrel replacement for the sw40ve? I'm sure the mags would work, but I'd like to find a .357 barrel if possible. Do they exist? Thanks.

I do not know if anyone makes them, but I would be interested in one also.
I asked the same question last year, but received no answer.

Bummer. From what I can gather, S&W only made a few hundred sw357ve's and finding one is a rarity. Barrels made by the factory are prolly long gone. I wonder if somebody on here has one, or knows an after market maker? 
S&W had spare barrels for a while. I know this because I bought one. I had intended to convert my 40 over to 357. I just forgot that my 40 was a full size and all of the 357SIGMAs were compacts.
While I was looking for a cheap 40 compact to use as a donor, I found a original 357SIGMA pistol and bought it. I still have the barrel, not too sure why I kept it.
BTW, 1500 357SIGMAs were produced. They are out there.

That is exciting news. I was chewing fat with a fellow on another thread, happens to be a moderator, and is a verifiable S&W employee. He told me 350 were produced. But, Id like to think that you are correct. I've checked arms list, and there is nothing for sale there. Any ideas?
First off you might post a WTB ad here on the Foum.
Step two is to get lucky.
After I made it known I was looking for one, I had three offered to me. Came across a fourth one shortly after that.
