I think the difference between the 9mm and the .40 is that though the .40 has better knockdown power, it is slower to get back on target.

I carry a Glock 26 (9mm) so I am prejudiced. BTW, I load it with a 15 round mag when at home.

Bullets don’t have knock down power.

That’s a good argument in favor of 9 and .45. .40 has a very violent recoil.

I have a 26, too. Along with a 17, 19 and a 21. The 26 is too damn small of a hand print for me. Only way I can use it is with the sissy-finger mag extension bottom plates.

They’re all good, I think, but to me they are dangerous and not in the good sense. I much prefer the 1911s I have.
