I have a new Colt Custom .38 Super I have not fired yet. I just purchased a 9mm barrel less link and pin. I have not received the new 9mm barrel yet, but it is a recent manufacture Colt barrel, so I have a few questions:
1. Can I use the existing .38 super barrel bushing with the new 9mm barrel?
2. I feel the .38 super extractor will work since the rims (38/9) are the same
Please don't suggest getting a complete 9mm 1911 pattern pistol. Please don't chastise me for trying to make a single platform do double duty; that's just the way I am
I don't plan to use this particular pistol for self defense, just a range gun, so I don't expect 100% reliability as a 9mm.
So in summation, can I have a 9mm with just a barrel/magazine/recoil spring change?
