Every Sigma I've seen has been a POS. Glad you went ahead and bought the Ruger...its a good gun at a fair price...
You can but you will have to go to an aftermarket barrel made just for that (barrel OD). You cannot go with just a Ruger 9mm barrel. Federal is the only company that I know of that makes aftermarket Ruger barrels. Search for Federal Arms on the web and give them a call. You will also have to use 9mm mags as I have tried in the past to use the Ruger 40cal mag in a 9mm and had reliability problems. The concept of which you speak is presently being done with Glocks.

Ruger: the Eveready Bunny of handguns. I have a P97 and love it. Keep that SS slide oiled every 4 weeks. They will rust but even then a bore brush and Hoppe's 9 will get it. Great gun, reliable with all ammo and as tough as ANY out there.
The P94 in .40 is a very, very reliable and durable pistol. It never misfired a single time in the thousand plus rounds I shot through it--no failures to feed, no stove pipes, no jams, no nothin'. All kinds of weather, all kinds of ammo--it just keeps plugging away.
It's also not the most handsome of firearms which was why I ultimately traded it in on a Beretta Cougar. I now wish I hadn't--not because the Cougar's given me problems, but because the Ruger was the only .40 in my lineup. Now I've got to replace it (gotta have a gun in every caliber--that's my new goal...) and I think to get a weapon as reliable and as stable of a platform for the caliber, I'll have to spend a lot more money...
The P94 was my first automatic and my most reliable. It set the standard for what to expect from subsequent later purchases--and few have matched it's performance with all types of ammo.
