I disliked the round because I had thought it to be a "compromise round".. (Yes said by a few folks)
Because I was invested in 9mm and .45 WAY more and I looked at the .40 as an equivalent to the .380.. Kind of a useless round..
However after shooting it more and more often.. I can see the category I would carry it for.
Not to mention I have a boat load of .40 left over from when I had sold my .40's... So now I need a tool chambered for it.
.45 is great and all but they really try and up the price on it compared to the .40.. So from a fiscal standpoint (and availability) Im able to purchase it nearly where ever and when ever I should want.. And its only a few bucks more than a box of 9.
