What’s funny is that .357 Sig is the one caliber I have never fired. I’ve never owned a pistol chambered in it. Is recoil similar to .40 S&W? It should be….and I’ve fired boat loads of .40. I’ve never had an issue with .40.
I’m also a big 9mm guy. Always have been. But it’s not a perfect caliber by any means. I agree with Mark…..we’ve basically moved to managing to the least common denominator (vaginization I believe you called it Mark). Why else would LEOs like the Secret Service switch from .357 Sig back to 9mm? Seems to me they would have a clear need for a caliber with a bit more oomph and penetration. If I need to punch through a car door or windshield I know which round I’d rather have. 9mm works for me most of the time because I’m just a civilian needing basic self defense. But if I was a professional, I would want every reasonable advantage I could get. Including more power. I just don’t get the dumbing down. That’s why I’m totally blown away at the pricing on these fantastic pistols in .40 cal.
I know I got way off topic but would love to hear your thoughts too. Does it make more sense to just move everyone to 9mm like the current trend suggests?
