[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 2297527, member: 24446"] I've always preferred the .45acp for anything two-legged related. The Glock 21, Ruger Blackhawk and my STI Elektra being my current guns in that caliber. The reason I bought my first and only 9mm was because after seeing Beretta 92's in the movies and be carried by our military I wanted one. Then I saw one online that had the pink Hogue wrap around grips on it and that was it, I had to have one so I did my research and chose a 92A1. So after that I had handguns in .22LR, 9MM, 45acp, 45Colt, .38/357magnum and 44 magnum but one the crazy hit finding ammo for any of them was impossible but we almost always found 40S&W. We decided to get .40's so we could finally go shoot. We (my sister and I ) did our individual researched and chose which .40 we liked. She chose a Walther P99 (a much nicer gun than I thought it was - I LIKE it) and I chose the M&P40 which, with the exception of the terrible trigger, is the best feeling/shooting polymer gun I've ever shot. After my first time to the range I found out that I loved both the M&P and the .40 caliber, the recoil wasn't even that noticeable. I can't say anything about all the other .40S&W guns but in the M&P the recoil was a non issue and I love the gun/caliber combo. [/QUOTE]
