You do need the powder funnel (#F) and 3 locator pins (#3) for 9mm. You could order the funnel and 3 pins individually, or you could just get the conversion kit.
Then with the funnel staying in the quick change head - to change calibers is easy. Change the 3 locator pins, swap the head out. Validate everything. Load away!
