SiG P229 in 357
a 357 cal. revolver cartridge WILL fit a colt 357 python. Also, a 38 special will fit a 357 cal. python. The 357 sig cartridge will NOT fit a 357 colt python................ The 357 sig cartridge ONLY fits the sig model pistol For clarity.....the sig 357 is a pistol. But, the 357 python is a revolver................
Yes, you can fire a .357 Sig round (not a .357 Magnum) in it, but you must first change out the .40 barrel for the .357 barrel.
No. .357 Sig and 9mm are two completely different calibers and not interchageable.
No. The Glock is an auto pistol. With the exception of the .357 Sig, auto pistols do not shoot .357 cartridges.
.357 Sig and .357 Magnum are not even close. .357 Magnum is a rimmed, straight walled cartridge for use in revolvers. .357 Sig is a rimless, bottle necked cartridge used in semiautomatic pistols. They don't even use the same bullet diameter. Other than the name, there is almost no similarity. In other words, NO.
Sig Sauer P229 and P239 chambered in .40 S&W. Here's the press release from Sig.
No. You can get a Sig P229 that will fire .357 Sig, but that is not the same as .357 magnum.
Have it examined by a gunsmith first. NEVER FIRE AMMUNITION IN A WEAPON NOT DESIGNED AND CHAMBERED FOR IT!
Yes, there have been a couple. At least one company (Coonan) has built a semi auto pistol that fires the .357 Magnum cartridge. A much more common find would be handguns built in the .357 Sig caliber. This is a bottlenecked .357 cartridge intended to duplicate the performance of the .357 magnum, but in an auto pistol cartridge.
No. The .357 SIG is a bottlenecked cartridge. It is fatter and longer than the 9mm Parabellum. ALSO, please note that many auto pistol cartridges headspace on the case mouth, and are VERY sensitive to length differences.
There are a very few semi-auto pistols that shoot .357 magnum (not .357 Sig). While they will fire .38 Special, it is as a single shot- they will not cycle the action.
