I would also suggest that the .40 offers little in significant improvement over the 9mm parabellum.

Efficacy is a measure proposed by L. Neil Smith. It is defined as energy in foot pounds multiplied by projectile cross-sectional area in square inches. Neil says that this is a pretty good indicator of the relative efficacy against live targets of different projectiles and loads. In an email about this page, Neil wrote, "I'm not absolutely certain of its applicability to rifles (although it looks pretty good and is fine for slugs and rifles like .45/70). There are other factors at work above 2000-2500 feet per second. But every year that passes convinces me more that this is the perfect program for predicting handgun performance."
VPJack said:Of course reliability is job one there is no question about that. However there are quite a number of guns that I have found to be as reliable as a glock, that I would and do bet my and my family's lives on. All of these also feel and shoot better for me. I am not saying that the glock is not as reliable as a brick, it just looks like one too.
If this is the case, then I'm sorry to say that he got ripped off. Check out www.gtdist.com. They have Glocks for $400 new. Sigs are $550-600 generally speaking.gc70 said:"Mine is better than yours."
"No, mine is better than yours."
As amazing as it sounds, both Glocks and Sig Pros are great guns. My son owns both types and we shoot them nearly every weekend. Accuracy, reliability, etc. - there is no significant difference. However, the NIB price he paid for his Sig Pro was less than the NIB price he paid for his Glock.
