Kings has plenty of police trades in .40
Drew Ursin used to teach the armorers course for Beretta and every course I attended, having only a hs diploma and in his typical no holds barred language, he would use a white board or chalkboard to show - mathematically - how the .40 S&W was another solution to problem that never existed …
(Still, for $160 case, I’d be BUYING more .40 cal guns!)
As soon as I use up what I’m sitting on the .40 cal Rock River* AR/pcc, Para P-16, SUB2000 and Glock 23’s are all going up on the auction block (* - the d*mn mags are worth as much as the carbine!)
$8 / box is mind blowing; best I have seen before this thread was the Speer GT Dist’s in TX had in Spring ‘23 for $15/box shipped!
What brand of ammo is the .40?I do believe they used to be or purchased Southern Firearms. That’s the correct address.
Out of my G20 or G29 I love shooting 40 though them, very little to no recoil….but I do clean (needed or not) the barrel because it makes me all warm and fuzzy when I start slinging 10mm.Anyone actually shot .40 through a 10MM, I keep hearing it can be done but don't wanna be a guinea pig?
I hear you can burn through extractors on some but other than that would it ruin anything?
Am I totally ignorant?
P16 hmmm 🤔 that’s what mine is.

Tell them CFF will take the whole lot?Everybody, hang tight. I’m trying to get some inside information about whether we can buy at that price.
They said Speer. I am guessing it’s 180gr TMJ training round. Since that was the most popular in LE.What brand of ammo is the .40?
I did it in a 1006 to see if it would work and it did.Anyone actually shot .40 through a 10MM, I keep hearing it can be done but don't wanna be a guinea pig?

Me either. I still have the guns and ammo.Never stopped shooting it, still carry one on the job. Old reliable.

That’s still 9mm pricing…The cheapest 40 on AmmoSeek is 25.9 cpr for reman.
That’s still 9mm pricing…
I think you want to reverse those signs. Or does Caliber Trump all?I dont even own a .40, but at that price it is almost worth it to buy one just to get ammo that cheap.
As far as the 9mm/.40 debate...my thought is that it doesnt really matter as much as we think. Accuracy<Reliability<Caliber. If you can shoot your EDC .22lr like a laser and hit exactly what you want every single shot then it’s better than a .44Mag that you "might hit sometimes".
I work for a bank, math isnt my thing.I think you want to reverse those signs. Or does Caliber Trump all?
Dana's?Just stopped by Dana’s. $12.99 / box for 40 Speer ball ammo and he was adamant that they would never sell to the public for less than that.
That’s really odd. I’m no longer LE nor did I represent myself as a retired LE. I did mention I work at a local community college (getting supplies for LE training was the bases of my call), I wonder if he told me that price thinking I was LE. Guys I’m sorry about getting everyone excited. I’ll call back on Monday and see if I can get clarification about his statement of $8 a box.Just stopped by Dana’s. $12.99 / box for 40 Speer ball ammo and he was adamant that they would never sell to the public for less than that.

I recall that. During the Dorner manhunt in CA.This picture is why I want a Toyota Tacoma.
Forget acorns, the two women in this truck were DELIVERING NEWSPAPERS.
They slowed down, threw the paper on the ground. The scary sound got them lit up by eight police officers. Some crossfiring at each other.
Over 100 bullets into the truck, one occupant was hit (not incapacitated).
I've got all 3 of those!OK…gonna get smacked here but have never been a fan of the 40. Thought about a 10mm but if you got a 45ACP it just ain’t necessary 🧐
