I am considering a caliber conversion change to my SIG P226 Legion SAO from 9mm to .40.
I was worried that the SAO gun would not handle the .40 conversion since they do not sell it that way, and the guy on the phone at SIG assured me that it was fine with SAO model.
I do want to be able to swap back-and-forth however between .40 and 9mm when needed. Is this a problem? It almost seems *too* simple: slide, barrel, guide rod and spring.
The reason I want to have the ability to shoot .40 before anyone flames me on how obsolete the .40 is, it is because I want to be able to make Major Power Factor for some USPSA matches that I shoot in.
Questions:
1) Has anyone converted a P226 SAO to .40?
2) Any issues swapping back and forth frequently? (I can't imagine anything, but it is better to ask and be safe...)
I realize that the conversion kit will not match my Legion coating, and I am fine with that.
