I personally love the 40. I have carried one as my primary duty weapon for 20 years. I have a few that rotate as my back up and EDC. My department is now transitioning to the 9mm. I’m not 100% sold on the 9mm round even though I have a few of them laying around also. I understand that bullet technology has came along way over the years but can’t seem to forget why we have a 40 caliber in the first place. After the Miami shootout in the early 80’s the FBI dropped the 9mm for the 10mm. Agents couldn’t hit their target with the bigger cartridge and complained about recoil and the 40 was born. Still in my mind, the bigger the hole the better! I know the bullet placement comments are coming, but proper bullet placement with a bigger bullet seems to make me feel better.
Why buy a gun like the 9mm and then have to buy the "right" ammo to make it perform like the .40 or .45? Thanks I got my answer.
