357- as in .357 magnum, is the diameter of the bullets fired in fractions of an inch. It uses a bullet that is 0.357 inches wide.

Does anyone make a 357 Sig Barrel for a Smith and Wesson Model 4006?

I am trying to make a deal with a coworker who says his 4006 came as a dual caliber gun .40 cal and .357 mag. I know the gun cannot be .357 mag so it must be a .357 sig. I have not yet seen the .357 barrel. I do know that Bar-Sto makes a .357 sig barrel as I just read the article on reloading .357 sig. Search google for 4006*.357 sig.
