They all said "oh man, that's a great deal... but It's christmas and I'm broke".

I keep getting emails from CDNN with those (reply)

With all of those prices, it would seem the .40 is on it's way out! Some of the interwebz chatter has been poo pooing it quite a bit; probably from the same guys who were hailing it as a perfect blend of the .45 and 9mm a few short years ago!

I've got a couple, a kel tec sub2000 and a matching Glock 22 that live in the truck as well as another 22 with a .40-9 threaded barrel that gets used mostly as a suppressor host. Nothing wrong with the caliber at all far as I'm concerned!

Yep (reply)

I get them, too. Sometimes they are cheap enough it tempts me to have a couple. :)

Glocks, smiths, even some Sigs on occasion.

Every man should own at least one .40 (reply)

Not that I really care for the cartridge, but ammo for it has been available in every panic-driven shortage in recent memory, as have components. After this last go round, I decided to keep one .40 as a just in case gun, with a 9mm conversion barrel to make it cheaper to shoot at the range. One can find PD trade-in Glock 22s and 23s for under $400 with just a little work and patience.

Oh good grief don't take good brass to the scrapper (reply)

mcassill — Sat, 20 Dec 2014 17:05:38 +0000

If cas doesn't take it I will. I know some folks with .40s, or Heaven help me I may end up with one myself.

lemme ask da boyz (reply)

If no takers, then off to the scrapper (reply)

Instead of selling the brass purchase one of the police trade-ins from Bud's on load them.
