I never really saw a need for a .40.
This will do for me.
Shot one once, a little "snappy" compared to my 21C.

I have a P229 in .40 cal that I used to carry on the job when I was a park ranger. Great gun. The .40 is also a good compromise between a 9mm and a .45, in terms of magazine capacity, power, and frame size of the gun.

Heck, I never saw a need for a .40, why do you think I swore I'd never get one:laughing: Had a P220 for the last twenty years or so and always wanted to get a P226 down the road sometime. Don't find many used stainless steel versions floating around out there at a reasonable price, so I grabbed it when I had the chance.

Agreed about the "snap" of a .40 (both my buddy and I agree that his G23 has the same amount of "snap" as my G20), however, having the gun being all stainless steel, the added weight helps in that department. Added the fact that a converting the .40 to a 9 isn't that hard in that model.

Nice! I am a fan of 40's and 9's.
AND I can turn the 40 into a .22 or a 9.
I shoot it as a .22 way more than I do as a 40.
Ammo is cheaper that way!
