I don't know about the Shield but with a lot of those 40 to 9mm conversions all that you'll need is a barrel and magazine(s). The 9mm conversion barrels have a wider diameter in order to fit in the 40 slide. If you do a lot of shooting and that's your only gun over the long run it would be cost efficient as 9mm ammo is cheaper than 40. Not only that but 9mm ammo is usually more available. You'll also have the advantage of having one gun with the ability to fire two different calibers with just a simple barrel and magazine swap.
