It will never die. As others said some people think when LE changes caliber what they gave up is extinct. I don't follow the wind or trends. I still like the forty and still think its better than any 9 with the same bullet. Heck you can still by guns and ammo chambered in 32-20/38-55 etc and those cartridges are over 100 yrs. old..........25 years or so ago and after the Miami shootout the .40 was the hottest thing going. Its still a great cartridge. BUT....Manufacturers have to shake things up a bit now and then to sell new product.
