Second barrel...

[SWOK]

I'm going to buy an M&Pc (.40) and may want a .357 Sig barrel. Are any of you going this route and have any constructive thoughts?

I am going with a ported 357 sig barrel from Storm Lake in my FS 40 along with an optic for a low buck open class gun. 2 guns for the price of 1.25...

I have the same thoughts as SWOK 'been looking at the 357 package offered by S&W that comes with a factory 40 bbl. I'll report back if it all comes together in the next week or so. It would be good to get some feed-back first...

Just order the factory 357 Sig barrel from Midway like I did. Cheap too. Will try it out when it gets here.

Maybe a dumb question but can I get a .357 barrel that would work in my 9fs? Or a .40?

This would be a nice bonus as I didn't think this was possible...

The 357 Sig barrel is a drop in for the .40. Nothing else must be changed.

You cannot and should not try to do so with the M&P9. The breechface is different and the slide is lighter in weight, which would cause excessive slide velocities if you could make it fit.

.40 in .357sigc

Went to order one from Midway-back-ordered, but will get one once in stock.

you found a .357sig compact barrel at midway? I've been looking forever and they don't have it listed.

I didn't see them, either.

Hey all, I heard of someone buying a .40c and then getting the .357 barrel from SW and buying a 9mm conversion from somewhere. Does that sound like a reasonable thing to do?

I wouldn't mind doing that myself. 3 guns in 1. Lots of options.

After a month's wait...I finally got my S&W 357 Sig Barrel!

Initially when I decided that I wanted a 357 Sig barrel I checked MidWay USA and they had it in stock. I delayed purchase for a few days and they were out of stock. I waited a month or so and finally got one and ran it through the paces and its awesome. I will mainly use my 40 FS as a 357 Sig FS now. Get one-can't beat the price and the reliability factor.
