Dave Gundry Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) I'd like to convert my Match 9mm over to 40 for some more fun in L/L10 - I called EAA, and it seems like the actual "Match" slides aren't available, so I'd have to go with the standard uppers... Std vs Longslide - anybody know the barrel lengths on each? Can't find the specs on EAA's site. Front sight - would Henning's F/O front work, or is it a different dovetail? Once again, can't tell from their pics... Thanks, Dave Edited January 29, 2008 by Krautwagen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satx40 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 EAA's tabel/pricing chart lists them at 4.5". I was thinking of putting a comped barrel on 9mm Match along with a Cmore and use it for steel. The match barrel is 4.75" I bought an FO from EAA. Had to work it a little before it would fit but once it was mounted it was as good as the Dawson FO on my Para 1640. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Gundry Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Thanks for the info Being that the LS is $299, I may just trade in my 9mm for a .40 Match - found one for $450. But, mags are going to be spendy... Probably start with 3 Henning 140's... not sure how many I'll need to get up and running - any input? Watch the classifieds for some 9mm mags in the near future, maybe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satx40 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I think it would be safer to start with 4 mags just in case you have a problem with one of them. If nothing else, get the 3 from Henning and pick up 3 factory ones from EAA to use just as spares. If I recall you can get three 15 round mags for $75. I've got 4 factory mags for my 9mm. I've had to work with the followers to make them work right but now they are pretty good tho' not excellent. I don't know about the .40's Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Gundry Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 That's odd - all 7 of my 9mm mags function perfectly without any work to em... Once again, I've changed my mind - just ordered up a Spartan - gotta give SS another try I should be back for a Stock2 or Limited Custom when we get them though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
