    .38 Super conversion to 9mm

    I want to be able to switch back and forth between .38S to 9mm. I have a Kimber Carry Pro. So I'm thinking to buy a Bar-Sto bbl and a couple of Wilson mags. I'm wondering if I should use a different spring and guide rod as well? Also, what weight spring for 9mm?


    All opinions welcome!!

    Thanks!!

      This is a perfect excuse to buy another firearm. Don't convert just add to your collection.

          You may need to adjust the ejector profile but first try to just fit a new barrel and maybe adjust the recoil spring tension. When I did that to an RIA 38 S with a Storm Lake bbl & bushing the mags even worked with 9mm. I have never gone back to 38 S though.
