At a lot of these training classes I do come across people that fire other calibers just as effectively. It has only been my observation that the vast majority of shooters, when stepping down to a 9mm in a platform which suits them tend to be far more accurate & fast under pressure. The real point I failed to clearly get across is that I always see these threads of people swapping or changing calibers and I am wondering if they are just searching for a solution to a problem that really isn't there. :fire
I don't think it's a problem-solving exercise. More the idea of being able to shoot different calibers from the same pistol. That way you could train with cheaper ammo yet still be able to carry a heavier load - all in the same gun so no grip adjustment or trigger pull adjustment is necessary.

Re: S&W M&P .357SIG vs .40

I wouldn't trust my life or that of my family to a conversion. The S&W forum has enough .40 conversion threads to lead me to believe that it's safe enough for the range, but most use the original barrel for carry / HD. I'll eventually get the 9mm barrel & mags and .357 barrel for my M&P .40. But like others, that will only be for the range.
