While I've seen .40 S&W mags feed 9mm jut fine into a conversion barrel, I HIGHLY recommend you take extreme care in following this practice. You do NOT want to ever chamber a 9mm into a .40 S&W or .357 SIG barrel. The result could be disastrous. .357 SIG into a .40 Barrel is also not a good idea, but at least it isn't likely to blow up on you.
I don't know about that Chris. Actually, I do, a friend shot a half dozen 9mm rounds out of my Glock 35 recently. He "thought" it was my G34 and took a mag of 9mm, loaded it up and proceeded to fire. Aside from the gun not cycling and absolutely dismal hits on the paper nothing bad happened. He had to manually cycle the slide to eject the round and chamber the next. After doing this a bunch of times he handed me the gun and said "see, Glocks suck, this gun doesn't shoot worth a damn". I took the gun, removed the magazine and showed him that he was shooting 9mm in my 40 cal Glock and said "see, in a pinch you can shoot anything out of a Glock!" I wish I could have captured the look on his face when I told him. It was priceless.
