I know they can be swapped out from .357/.41/.44 and .50 is on a bigger slide but would I have to have a MK VII barrel for a MK VII barrel right?
Or I could buy a new upper slide but that is really expensive... 
Btw, mines in .41 and I want it out of that. its too blasted expensive and "rare" Thanks guys for any info. |

Yes, the series 7 50ae and newer models have the wider slide.
So you need a series 7 barrel to go with the series 7 slide (44 through 357). As for the series 7 50ae, since the barrel had to be bigger, it used the wider slide, and to allow all the pistols to be barrel swappable, the new series used the new wider slide for all models (read with the new thicker barrels to go with the wider slide). |

Unless you find a real good deal on a slide and barrel you may be better off selling yours and buying the newer model. The difference will probably be less than all the parts you will need and it will be more versatile in the long run if you want to run multiple calibers especially the .50. Just sell one magazine with the pistol as they will work with the new one and I'm pretty sure .41 magazines work for .44 as well.

Not trying to hijack your thread, but I have a .50 AE upper from my brother. Is this something yall might be intrested in?
