.40vs9mm

[Esox357]

What will you be using it for? For target practice and self defense the 9mm will do fine. Ammo is cheap and you can practice alot. Later on if you decide you need a little more power than you can look at the 40. Recoil wise the 9mm will "rock" in your hand while the 40 has a "snap" characteristic to it. It isn't hard to shoot but I am definitely a little slower with the 40 for follow up shots, compared to the 9mm. Either one will be okay. If you get a chance you may want to rent one at the range and shoot it before you buy. Esox357
