Geez! When I opened this thread I did not expect to see it had gone to over one hundred posts! I have never understood the objections to .40SW. I have a 5-inch M&P that I really like, and a couple other .40s that I might say “are going nowhere.” I am not too keen on the .40 in a compact weapon, which seems like the logical place for 9x19, but a full-size gun holding 15 or 16 rounds of .40SW seems like a pretty formidable weapon to me. I certainly wouldn’t trade it for a like model in 9x19 that holds a couple more rounds.
