Personally, I don't like the .40 because the recoil in the guns I tried was worse than a .45. And the bullets are too easily confused with 9mm for me to keep both in my rotation.
I don't like .40 because it throws me off sometimes when scrounging brass from the range. :lol:

Re: Is the .40 dead?

The FBI going back to 9mm is cascading down to local departments all over. I'm sure, as Scott is seeing in LE orders, .40 is on the way out as a mainstream handgun cartridge.

With ballistics being neglibile these days between 9mm and .40 in defensive rounds, I'd rather have the extra capacity and reduced recoil of 9mm.
