You and the Fotay: A study
- Thread starter azredhawk44

Azredhawk likely lives in Arizona, and might be getting a little paranoid because of the Border Patrol egg-beaters flying over his house looking for TONC's (Travelers Ourside their Native Country).
Not to worry; one of the pilots is a friend of mine, and I've flown with him a few times. They really are just looking for UDA's.

Never really cared for the 40 S&W. I like the 9mm, and the 10mm is one of my all time favorites, but the .40 Smith I can do without.

I've been on the forty bandwagon since day one, owned many and still do. My favorite shooters for gun fun are the forties I own. I see it as the semi pistol version of the missing link between primate and homosapien. There was the 9mm and the 45, there was a gap, something missing.
As far as dark helicopters, no problem as long as they aren't flying with the UFO's and men in black! When I see the Ufo's and men in black I put on my aluminum foil hat so they can't get inside my head.

Well, let's see...
I don't care for dark helos, I shoot "modern" hand guns, and I own a few 1911's; some of those modern as well. Do I like a louder, more expensive, lower cap, version of the 9 mm? No, not really.

"It's not that I dislike the cartridge, it's more that I own several 9s with which I am totally confident for self-defense/carry purposes, and I don't feel the .40 stands out enough from the 9 to compel me to put forth the effort and cost of stocking another caliber."
Amen, especially the part about it being too close to the 9 mm. If I want to ramp it up from 9 mm, I have a .45 acp, and if more is needed, I have a true .40, the 10 mm! .40s&w is an answer, to a question that I have never asked anyway.

Please folks, let's keep it civil, they should be called "undocumented" bounty hunters.

You don't have the right catagory for me
I have a Glock Mod 22, I ain't pretty but it gets the job done every time and I know the caliber is sufficient for what it's designed for. I like new designs as well as old, as long as they are reliable and accurate. I used to have a S&W 9mm. While it always went "BOOM" it was terribly inacurate. I have nothing against the 9mm. I don't see the point in full sized pistols in 9mm. It's a smaller round ideally suited for smaller pistols.
When the price of guns, ammo and reloading supplies comes back down and the economic situation stabalizes I'll be looking for a .45 in a 1911 platform. I think every collection needs at least one. I don't currently own a 9mm, don't plan to, I'm not recoil sensitive so why not go a little bigger?
I might pick up a 9 for my wife though.
