Has anyone used a Bar-Sto 9mm conversion barrel for a Sig In .40?

I've had mine since last summer or so.  I have the P229 9mm conversion bbl.  For me it was a drop in.  It has worked 100% and I have actually stopped using the .40 bbl.  I enjoy the 9mm in the p229 better.  I never warmed up to the .40.  It was fun to shoot, but I wasn't consistent with it.  Putting the 9mm bbl in the gun, it has become one of the pistols that I shoot the best.  POI is a bit different than the .40, but not too far off, no need to change sights or anything.

Do NOT be in a hurry for the bbl to arrive.  I had to wait over 2 months for it to ship (ordered 3/7/05 arrived around 5/26/05) If it's not in stock, you'll have to wait for a production run, which was my case.

It was a great purchase for me though.  I liked the sig, but it wasn't one of my favorites until the bar-sto.  The .40 mags have worked great with the 9mm rounds.  I can fit 12-13 in the 10 rounders and 14-15 in the 12 rounders.  I have not had any failures of any kind with the bar-sto, but I have only run WWB value packs through it (no hollow points)
