I have a couple .40 Glocks, a 22 and a 23. Carried both on duty at times and have confidence in both. IMO .40 is a great caliber. Recoil might be a bit more than a 9mm but to me an insignificant difference. Have seen some females with very small hands that transitioned from 9mm to .40 without any real change in proficiency.
In a gunfight I would prefer a 180 or 165gr .40 diameter bullet entering a body over a 115gr .35 diameter bullet. Is there some kind of Internet requirement to always refer to the lightest 9mm lead load when comparing to the 40? Lol. Seems so.

I THINK it's an early Performance Center 4006, with a 5" barrel/slide combo. Back when the Performance Center actually built custom guns. I got to shoot one they built for Tom Campbell when he was on their shooting team (around 1990), and it was a helluva pistol. You nailed it, ratsmacker. Very limited production. Bought mine new at retail about the time you mentioned. I’ve heard it variously called Comp 40 and Tac 40. But, I’ve seen a copy of a Roy Jinks letter on a duplicate pistol, with serial number very close to mine, in which it was referred to as the Model 4006 Competition 40. Its features include: A Bar-Sto marked 5-3/8” barrel with a Briley spherical bushing, a 3 pound trigger spring, polished lower front hammer surface for smoother D.A., one-sided 745-ish safety/decocker, oversized mag release, and absolutely superb fit and finish. I replaced the standard S&W low Novak 3-dot fixed sights with an MMC adjustable rear and a .245” Novak front. I’ve successfully resisted the temptation to sell it, even after seeing this: ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/7LvtzFtr/4-A9-AAC36-43-F2-499-A-8195-4-BADE47177-E3.jpg) It’s just too damned enjoyable to let go. I think of it as sorta like a .40 caliber DA/SA SIG P49 (P210).

I have an old Springfield XD .40 that I really like. It is butt ugly, kind of heavy and too big for concealed carry. It does however make a good nightstand pistol and I shoot it better than my 9’s or 45.

My first handgun was chambered in .40 S&W and I still have it. Great shooting gun and never a problem with it. Last summer I carried it with hard cast bullets for bear protection while out ATVing. I have a Glock 20 as well, and now Springfield XDM Elite in 10mm, but I like shooting the .40. I also have a couple of 9mm pistols as well, and I carry them for 2 legged critters. Now that being said, lots of factory loaded ammo is too lightly loaded in my opinion. I have not loaded for the 10mm or .40 yet, but that’s changing as I have dies for it now. Also as others noted, during the last 2 ammo shortages, I was able to find ammo for the .40 S&W quite easily and was shooting while others couldn’t find ammo.

Had the stock Novak sights back on the Comp-40 for a while: ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/0yXv19tQ/57-FACEC9-DA84-44-B4-A425-71-C0370-B6-EBA.jpg) Then switched yet again to the MMCs: ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/XqYBqj0P/04-C0-D91-A-954-F-4613-8-E90-EA47-E973-D20-C.jpg) Took it out yesterday to re-establish its standing, two handed, 50 foot zero: ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/CxG8c6Jm/EBA4567-D-DA70-4252-B91-F-7-E3-C1-D8-B031-E.jpg) While elevation remained unchanged, gotta tickle it just a little bit more to the right. An advantage to adjustable rear sights which are only drift-adjustable for windage is the tiny adjustments possible. The windage correction needed here would equal maybe half a click, or less, on a factory S&W adjustable rear sight.

The .245” front sight keeps the rear sight up within this fine adjustment range. Sadly, they’re no longer made.

I take it that by “everyone,” you’re referring to yourself and your sophomoric homies, who spend their days moving from thread to thread, cluttering up otherwise interesting threads with grade school level insults, without ever offering anything of value.
