It is not just the 40's, not real fond of combat tupperware either.

And for the LOVE OF GOD.........do not hold a Glock in .40......it will kill you and everyone in the town you are in.

Just a nice reminder from the "928's that hate .40 cal crowd". now, if you are not a firearm owner, do not read the top 5 lines.

Aww Greg, I thought you liked my .40 H&K... comes from the Fatherland, like our sharks!

[FYI: .40 cal hits like a .45 acp, but has the velocity and higher mag capacity of a 9mm]

I like 45 but I my 40 is a bit smaller and carries better for me. Love your answer though.

H&K is the only manufacture to address the one of the real issues with the 40, and has more than one.

H&K modified the guns to try and prevent them coming out of battery while the bullet is still in the barrel, which can and does cause case blow outs, or as commonly called the 40 KB.

I am not going to go through this again, you folks can believe what you want about the 40, but there is no a doubt that they tend to come unglued at a much higher rate than any other modern caliber.

I personally know of seven that have exploded here in Coweta County Georgia, most were with factory loads, six glocks and one Sig.

Come on over and help Jerry mow his big yard:

And can somebody tell Jerry how to add his name to his signature area so he can stop typing it with every post?
