Will XD 40 slide assy fit and function on XD 9 frame?

My XDM 10mm 5.25" has been an absolute beast and every bit as good, with better ergonomics than any of the G20's I've owned.

My XDM 10mm 4.5" is jealous...
Maybe it's just me...

The great thing about the XDm 45 and 10mm is they kept the magwell the same size as the XD line. You could slap a XDm 45 slide on your 10mm frame and have lots of 45 mags to choose from.

Not quite that simple but easier than 9 to 40. Also I think I've tried this as I've got XDM 10 & 45 and the mags are a bit funky as the catch slot is located different.

Has anyone on here tried taking a single stack 1911 mag and modifying the catch to function in an XDS?

I want the longer barrel. I like to load fast 10mm.
Still within book data. If I want a real hot rod, I have two 45 Win Mags.

I like my XD mod 2 3.3" in 45acp a good bit better than my friends XD (mod 1). There is a XD mod 3 out now. Unfortunately it only is chambered in 9mm. I personally am a big fan of conversions barrels. 9mm for plinking and 40 S&W for self defense. Throw in a 357sig barrel for good measure.
