.40 not so popular?

If you check , I am hearing of more LEO going to 45
I know our office just changed recently.

it's simple math the 9mm has high capacity and less power you shoot the BG twice.the .45 has more power but low capacity you shoot the BG once.If someone will explain how to shoot a BG 1.5 times I'll run out and sell all my 9s and 45s and get a bunch of .40s.If I want 45 power with more capacity I'll shoot my 10mm.

.40 not so popular?

how much popular can it be, every major and minor gun maker is making there guns in that caliber there is a reason for that, and a reason that they make and sell so many .40 guns. if a gun company wasn't selling them so well they wouldn't offer them in the numbers and models that they do. as a matter of fact i think that .40 is getting more popular everyday in the private sector.

look at guns like .357sig great defense rd but ammo is outrageous and most folks would rather go with a rd that is cheaper and more avaliable, and easier to reload.

the .45gap a total flop IMHO i don't know one single person that has one, again ammo is crazy high. great idea but it just hasn't taken off.

my carry guns and my home defense guns are all .40 i love .40 and will always have .40 guns. i talk alot of people into buying guns and they say they would rather have .40 over 9mm. and .45acp

Love them

I've got or owned most of the popular calibers, and I'll say it loud and say it proud, I LOVE MY 40's! My everyday carry choice and the one I spend most of the time at the range with.

I wish the ammo price would get in line with the 9mm though...
