    Looking for a Barsto 9mm barrel for a .40 to 9mm conversion I'm doing for my Sig P226. I'd prefer if it was new or slightly used. No "only 600 rounds shot" barrels. Let me know what you've got.

    I just received a Bar-Sto barrel for my P226 in 9mm last week. It took some very minor adjustment to fit, and now that it's nicely polished, it's a work of art!

    However, I immediately tested its accuracy with some bench rest comparisons against the stock barrel and the threaded barrel and found virtually no difference in accuracy. That was disappointing, to say the least.

    If you don't find one anywhere in the next few weeks, feel free to PM me to see if I'm ready to sell it. It's a beauty, but I didn't buy it for looks. After waiting 10-12 weeks for it, I really hoped that it would perform better.

    Perhaps that says something about the Sig Sauer stock barrels ...
