1911 10mm to 38 super

[Jdcujo]

Anyone know whether it's possible to convert say a certain ria hc 10mm to 38 super?
I already know they use the same slides on the single stack (breech face for 38 super is slightly bigger than 9mm so factory convertible guns use the bigger 40 s&w slide for ria at least don't ask how I managed to find that out).
Basically just curious if anyone's done it and if not then well now I gotta find a barrel and already got the Para 38 super mags sitting in a shopping cart

I thought about doing it but decided against it because 1911’s can be tricky when changing barrels! It’s not like a glock where you just switch it unless you get lucky!
Curious why you want to change a longer faster version of a 40 cal for a longer version of a 9mm. (.355 -.356)?

Just because
I already reload for both and already have a witness in both calibers so
