The .40 gives you nearly .45 power in a 9mm size gun. SO the cops love it. Something like 75% of the cops in the country use the .40, most of them in Glocks.
The FBI uses the Glock 22/23.
The Secret Service uses the Sig P229 in .357 Sig and love it, according to the president's advance detail (sometimes being an ex-news photographer has perks, like being on first name basis with a bunch of Secret Service guys......)
US Customs uses 9mm Glocks, but bet they'll go to .40 eventually.
LAPD just authorized 9mm, .40 and .45 Glocks. Bet most of the 9mm guys who want more power will go to the .40.
You know when they start chambering submachine guns from major makers (H&K UMP .40) in the caliber, it's popular.
