If i had to choose between 9mm and .40 i'll choose the .40 every time. No telling how many police depts and the FBI issue it.
The next day, I spoke to guys that shoot all 3 calibers, 9, 40 and 45 about recoil.
I don't hate 9mm, I just know that in many applications the .40 is a better round.
Here's some of the problem with these threads.....
How about YOU shoot all these calibers, in the same gun, and see what YOU think is the best and then decide which one YOU like?
Since no two shootings are ever alike, nobody can ever unequivocally say that one cartridge is better than another.
They are all okay and they all compromise something.
depends on the weather. yes. honestly the weather haha. summer. when people are clad in a t shirt, or no shirt. 9mm is great. especially in HPJ. so is .40 . but ayoob taught me one thing. winter means heavy clothes. heavy clothes clog HPJ's and turn them into ball ammo. so if im going to be throwing balls. i want to be throwing bigger balls ;-)
I have a 5904 that is a very enjoyable pistol in 9mm. I recently purchased a XD Subcompact .40. A little less capacity but a little more punch.
