Snappy, not too hot, not to cold. Meh, not worth the addition.

Takes a man to shoot it, so of course it's not for most.

It doesn't solve any problems that a 9mm doesn't. Ammo costs more, capacity is less, the guns don't hold up to as many rounds due to the higher pressures, and if you get the heavy loads you might as well get a 10mm.

If you're giving it away I'll take it. Haven't had any problems with a 40. Have a Sig 250 in it, shoots fine and accurate

Pretty well sums it up.......

I don't hate 40's. Had one. Glad other folks like 40's.

I like .40 S&W. Got a G22 and G23. When they're not eating 40, they're eating 9mm. Lone Wolf Alpha Wolf 40>9 conversion barrel, 9mm recoil spring and 9mm mags. Never a hiccup.

I'll have more flexibility come the EOTWAWKIT.
