I just got done buying some Heinie Straight Eights to replace the factory sights on my G23. My next purchase will be one of the above 9mm drop in barrel ( I have to sneek them in ..... wife...).When I do, I will report back on how well it does of does not work.

You missed my point.

The guns are not identical, less the barrels. You can make a .40 a .357 with a barrel swap, and vice versa. I do not think you can do the same with the 9mms. It might fit, but it probably will not run well.
