kneelingatlas Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 No, a .40 case won't fit into a Tanfoglio 9mm breech face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet that smart, good looking, talented guy at Patriot Defense could do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfinney Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 But if you open up a 9mm slide on the breacface to .40 dimensions to fit a .40 barrel, aren’t you know fitting a .40 to a .40? ( I had a 1911 once that started life as a 9mm, previous owner had breacface opened to .40, and them when I bought it it had just been opened up to .45. Bailey did all the work btw.) But typically .40 barrels won’t fit in a 9mm slide without this breachface work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
