[Help]Converting my XD9 to an XD40

kavity · November 4th, 2007, 01:17 PM

What do I need to do to convert my XD9 -> XD40? Can I just buy a .40 barrel and some .40 mags? Or is it a much more involved process.

Are there kits available?

I don't think you can go from 9mm to 40 cal. lot of work involved. You may wanna ask the company.

You can sell your 9 and buy a .40. Which reminds me, when are they going to make a .22 kit for the Xd's?

Its my understanding that if you have a 40 you can convert to a 357sig or a nine. A 357 sig can be converted to a 9 or a 40.

You can't go up though so if you bought a 9, you can't convert.

The breechface on your 9mm slide is too narrow for a .40SW or .357sig. The larger shell casings wouldn't fit.

There is a kit available. It costs ~$500 and as a bonus, you get an XD9!

YES! What a sweet deal!

I guess that means now I ahve to choose between a .40 subcompact or the .45 compact...

What do you guys think?!?
