.40 SW... losing interest?

[Dingo]

Daily I see at least 10 new ads for any of the guns we're all scrambling for (Glock, HK, Springfield etc) in .40, while the 9's are spoken for seconds after posting. I know my personal reasons for preferring 9mm is cost (my sunny, sparkles n' bubblegum optimism says it'll approach affordable again someday), capacity, andmore widely available (again... optimism). Are those the same reasons everybody else is dumping/passing up .40's, or am I missing something?

its a snappy round and tough to shoot fast.....it sounds awesome on paper then you shoot it and go meh ill throw it on armslist....or at least thats why i sold mine

yeah that about sums it up .all the worst aspects of the 9mm and 45acp combined

I'll be happy to take any .40s that you want to donate.

.40 works for me, but it isn't one of the guns I grab to have fun shooting. I'd much rather shoot my .45s.

I love 40SW, but I also love 9mm , 45acp and 10mmih. For carry I won't usally go lower than 40SW which of course is a personal comfort preference. I do shoot all the calibers just fine. I also shoot 38, 357 and 44 as well. Either way I like 40 SW none of mine will be up for trade.

I love my .40. It shoots as well as my 9mm and is no more difficult to handle.

It is a snappy round, but I have not had any issues controlling it. I am down to just 1 .40, but I'll keep at least I around for available ammo. Mine shoots .40, .357 Sig, and 9 mm with nothing but barrel changes and a mag change for 9.

Me and my wife shot a 40 cal Glock 22 for competition for 2 years. I like the 40, some people just dont like it. To me its no different then shooting a 45 or 357 sig.

There are few reasons that the 40s are the last things to go. All already posted above.
