Can 226/229 be changed between all three calibers

If I buy a new 226 or 229 in 9mm, can I drop in factory .40 and .357 barrels to the same gun?

You can drop .357 into 9mm.

You can drop 9mm and .40 into .357

You can drop 9mm and .357 into .40.


I THINK this is correct, but please ask a professional gunsmith first.

+1 to what he said. I wouldn't go changing things on a whim without some consultation with an expert.
