Just bought my first sig. A P250 compact threaded barrel. I am going to use this pistol for practice and competition in 9mm and want to have a 357 sig setup for self defense. What all do I need to buy for the swap?

You need a .357sig conversion kit.  Should be able to order one from Sig.  They'll send you a slide, barrel, and mag.  I used to have a P250 and when I registered it with Sig they gave me a discount on the kit.  The slide came with night sites.

Thanks for the info. By chance do you know about what price the kit goes for?

It was about $250 or so if I remember.  If it's not listed on the Sig website their customer service could tell you if they still sell them.  If they don't I'm sure you could find one on Gunbroker and I've seen them on eBay.

Will let you know this weekend. Plan on putting 500 rounds through it Saturday.

Another quick question, I keep seeing people mention a SRT. What is it and is it something I should be looking for for this pistol?

Short Reset Trigger.  Available from SIG.

The short reset trigger would just make your 10 lb pull much shorter than it is currently.

They don't make a Short Reset Trigger for the P250, they do make a Short Reach Trigger for it however.

I love my P250.   Yes, the DAO trigger takes some getting used to.   I did follow some advice from Lefty over on Sigtalk to shim out the the back of the grip module to reduce the slop in the trigger (if you search for the thread over there you'll find my pictures on how to do it).

The question is what caliber do you have now.

The SIG caliber conversion kit likely has MORE than you need.    It contains the slide, barrel, spring, and a grip module.    If you already have a .40 S&W you can save a lot of money because all you really need to do is replace the barrel.    If you have a 9mm, you'll need the new slidespring.    If you have a 45, you need a slide/spring and the grip module.

I have a P250C with threaded barrel in 9mm. I plan to get a conversion kit to 357SIG as that is my carry round of choice that I use in my XD's.
