I'm confused, as I am frequently,........but you are selling a franken gun that now shoots .40, no .357 barrel anymore, and all the magazines included are labeled .357. So the buyer gets a gun with magazines that no longer will work with the supplied barrel?
OR, in my confusion, do the .357 magazines also chamber .40?
I'm not being critical, I just want to understand.

Joe the .357 Sig and the .40 will use the same frame, slide, and mags, but not the barrel.

To expand on carlson1's post, most .357 or .40 pistols can shoot either with the appropriate barrel. Mags are the same since .357 is essentially a .40 casing bottle necked down to fit a smaller sized bullet. I believe HK has marked some of their mags with both calibers since they are interchangeable. It's not really a Franken pistol, just converted with 1 factory part changed with another factory part. There is no difference internally between the 32 and the 23. Ejectors and extractors are all the same. I've updated my original post. Thanks for bringing this up. I should have mentioned it originally.

I have learned something new tonight. I never knew .357 and .40 were interchangeable so easily. Thanks for the great information! Good luck with the sale!
