how hard is it to make a 1911 in .357 sig.is it as simple as getting a 1911 in a .40 then just dropping in a .357 sig barrel.i see where bar-sto sells a .357 sig barrel for the colt 1911.but looks like it would only work with a 40 and not the 45 different head size.am i right or wrong about this thanks,keith
 
I'm gonna guess out loud, just for the fun of it.

If the .357 Sig and the .40 have the same case head, the ejector won't be a problem. Or the extractor.

If the Sig is a hotter cartridge than the .40, the recoil spring oughta be appropriately stiffer.

I guess the last item of concern would be the fit of the barrel and the bushing.

And now I can sit back and wait.

:D, Art
