I am not very recoil sensitive but have noticed that the .357sig and 40s&w have a bit more pop than a 9mm. The .357sig is loaded to a higher pressure and the bullet flies very fast and straight. However the .357sig ammo is much more expensive. I find myself running 9mm thru my glock 23 conversion barrel for this this very reason.

Btw, I carry my 9mm lone wolf conversion barrel in my glock 23 with no hesitation whatsoever. I have fired over 500 rounds without a single jam or ftf.

Why not just carry a Glock in 9mm from the get-go? This has potential to be exploited by a lawyer if you use it in self-defense. "This round is more lethal and not designed for this gun!" "This man wanted a barrel in his gun that could kill better!"

I guess I could be exaggerating but it's a possibility.

My M&P core is more fun to shoot with the 9mm barrel but it says "40" on the side, so that is the barrel that sits in it on a daily basis.
