TR's recommend about Novak is right on. The .40 Hi-Powers that browning built were not totally a void filler. If you notice on the pistol that the slide is fatter than a 9mm version. This can be identified by a milled slot on the left side to accomodate the slide stop. Browning determined that the added weight was needed for the .40 cal. TR's mention about the breech face was correct too in that trying to just change barrels will create pressure issues without having the rear of the case protected. One other source for information is Bill Laughridge at Cylinder & Slide Shop. A phone call to the shop will get you more information than you could ever imagine.
