They wouldn't be so bad if all the manufacturers didn't insist on stuffing them into undersized 9mm frames. The only .40s I've shot that were adequately sized for the round are an H&K and a Sig.

I've got a .40 Firestar. It's about the size of a Colt Mustang .380. Thank goodness it's all steel. Even with the extra weight, it's a beast to fire.

I have a Firestar too.

It is the heaviest gun for it’s size I have ever seen. It literally feels like a hunk of lead. It is small enough to fit your pocket but would make your pants droop to one side.

Never given any problem and pretty mild in recoil to me. I finally found two spare mags but they are really scarce and for some reason, expensive.
