KHolmP225A1 & the 239 slide... think they interchange?
That’s my question! I’ve always been a huge fan of the P series legacy slide with the half height serrations & domed roll pin. Sitting here rocking my baby, reading the forum as usual I thought to myself, what would the odds be that a 239 Tactical slide would fit on my 225a? I’ve read that barrels are a direct drop-in, triggers, locking blocks, takedown pins, etc., are all the same. Hell, even the controls look identical.
Does anyone know? Does anyone here (stupid question) own both? I’d LOVE to know if it’s possible. If it were, and maybe this is a pipe dream, I’d buy a 239 Tac just for the upper!
I absolutely love my 225. I can’t wait to see a GGI flat trigger hit the shelves for it.

12131Yes. There was a member who did the swap and posted the pic on here a while ago. Can't recall who, though.

I must’ve let work get in the way then... Thanks, Q! Going to have to try a more thorough search.

Unfortunately, you won't find it, because it was from last year, and it's been auto pruned.

Would you mind if you have a moment doing so and emailing me?? Also, functionally was it good to go or was it a swap only? Thanks a mil!
