Two years later I come back and visit this video. Since then I retired after 34 years LE. I switched over to the .40 and .357 Sig for my EDC carry guns now. Recently got a Glock 27 and I LOVE it! I love felt recoil with that caliber!!!! I can comtrol double taps without issue. Long live the .40!

[@SargeC4Defense]

😂

[@Omar-if1cu]

The 40 S&W has the most energy of the three common calibers and is on par with 9mm in pressure and almost on par with velocity while being a heavier bullet than the 9mm. All of this means that the 40 obviously has the most kick (and arguably so called “power) out of all three. People need to stop being surprised that it kicks more than a 45 acp, just do the math and you’ll understand why the muzzle flip is always more.

[@Omar-if1cu]

Not that im saying that the guy who made this video was surprised

[@SargeC4Defense]

Absolutely.

[@SargeC4Defense]

Nope, I wasn't surprised at all. I've been carrying a .40 for years. I'm very familiar.

[@GassyBastard]

The .45 +p has more energy.

[@Gieszkanne]

@@GassyBastard I would say rather equal. A 180gr 45+p has about the same velocity than a 180gr 40. There are some hot 135 and 155gr 40 S&W out there, they could still have more energy.

Glock 26, the best concealed carry gun which comes with three 10-Round magazines. It's also compatible with a 15round Glock19 magazine and a 17round Glock17 magazine, so you can increase the capacity by swapping magazines. It can also fit a 33-round magazine which makes it unique from other sub compact concealed carry guns.

So.. I guess I'm the only one who keeps their 27 as a 40sw. It's not even hard to control the recoil, like at all. It's only snappy if you dont have strong hands and I don't mean that to be "internet tough guy" talk i dont even lift 😂

[@SargeC4Defense]

Gerlon Two Fingers I shoot 40 at work, and I agree that it’s snappy but controllable. I still prefer my G26 over the G27 because there’s not a benefit to the 40 over the 9mm anymore. It’s just personal preference.

[@Pain_Sight_Tools]

@@SargeC4Defense I don't mean to be the "numbers guy" but, I'll give you a little data. Hornaday critical defense, for instance: 9mm delivers 332 foot lbs at the muzzle, 45 acp delivers 411 foot lbs, and 40sw delivers 506 foot lbs. Thus, when comparing, 40sw is almost 40% stronger per round, given the same style round from the same manufacturer. Just food for thought. Personal preference does matter but the raw data is hard to argue with. That info was taken from Hornaday's website by the way, so you know it's not just made up.

[@SargeC4Defense]

Sounds like Hornaday is producing some underpowered 9mm 😂. But seriously, how many times have you seen someone disregard some quality 9mm and continue their attack?

[@fearnonebutone4977]

You can see the plates swing more with the .40 than the 9mm. Some say “modern technology has made the 9mm better than it used to be”... which is true. But that same technology applies to .40 (and others) as well. Some complain about the “snappiness” of the .40. True, it does have more felt recoil than shooting regular 9mm ammo, but most people who say that, practice with regular white box 9mm ammo, then load +P+ in their guns for self defense. The problem here, is that they don’t TRAIN with +P+ 9mm. If they did, they wouldn’t notice much difference between felt recoil of a +P+ 9mm VS the .40. As for service life, my agency has been carrying .40 since 2009, and we VERY rarely have ANY issues with our handguns. All that to say this: Great video and all 3 are good choices! Enjoyed the video!

[@drippingjimmy5492]

9mm only has the advantage of higher capacity magazines when compared to the 40 S&W. For a duty gun I carry the glock 19, because when on duty it is unpredictable on how long and how many shots I may need. 9mm takes the cake for duty situations, but for off duty conceal carry, and for personal defense situations that tend to be close quarters I prefer and firmly believe the 40 s&w takes the cake, because it delivers a higher yield of foot pounds of energy. A 40 s&w when in close quarter combat would put a bigger incapacitating wound and would cause the assailant to bleed out quicker. Not to mention terminal ballistics of 40 S&W are higher when compared to the 9mm.

Sarge, thank you so much for the great comparo. I EDC an easily concealabe G19, have a G26 with +2 extenders and X-Grip G19 mag spacers for outfit versatility.....and am (was?) considering a 19X. It's grip is only 1/4" or so longer, and not too much longer for concealment on my body. Then 2 weeks ago at the range a friend tells me I can shoot a box of 50 rounds thru his G38 .45 GAP. I steadied for it to try to jump outta my hand. BAM! (Thought: "Huh?...What the hell? This is a damn .45?") BAM! BAM! BAM! Well, felt no truly discernable (read: additional) recoil after just shooting my 19, 26, even the wife's 43, was every bit as manageable, very accurate right-handed, off-handed, or one-handed with either hand. Blew my mind. May rent one, but after checking out 5-10 shooting reviews after yours, may not need to. Glock CLEARLY has shut down the recoil discussion. So, since the 30SF fits nicely in between size-wise, has 10+1 with G21 spare mag capability....I am sold. Again, much appreciated & take care.

[@SargeC4Defense]

I’m a big fan of the Glocks in 9mm and 45 acp. They handle the recoil very well. The only concern with the 45 GAP is ammo availability.

[@mitchmiller145]

@@SargeC4Defense Oh, okay....was not aware of the GAP ammo issue, so I'll stick with the 30SF for sure. By the way, the wife and I drove up two weeks ago and were in Fletcher for a week at her cuz' house....didn't realize C4 is just a stone throw away! Very cool. Anyway, coming back up for Christmas, as we do every year and hope to move to western Carolina one day. We love your neck of the woods. Take care, Sarge.

The Glock 30 never ever came with a 9 round magazine it has always came with 10 round mags. The 9 round is an extra purchase item!

[@SargeC4Defense]

GunsHarleysUSA apparently they did when they first came out, according to the rep, that’s why he had them in stock when I ordered it. I may contact Glock to verify either way. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I started a joke !!!!! , Just saw your reply. Thanks for the thumbs up. Man, I wish would have bought more 9 mm ammo now. Have plenty to hold down the fort but no much to train with. Have tons of 45 ACP but don’t lug around my 1911 anymore.

[@survivalguyfyi5718]

Chico McCombs ; appreciate the thumbs up. Yeah I’ve carried about every popular caliber. Went back to the 9mm before the police started switching back. Love it. Cheap ammo, great penetration, and these days with all the mass shootings high capacity makes more and more sense. Citizens can end up in honest to god shootouts. Hope it never happens but nice to not be helpless.

Used to own a G27 but my favorite EDC is my G30. My G30 came standard with two 10 round magazines. (Got it when it first came out)

[@SargeC4Defense]

The G30 is sweet. You should order one of the flush mount 9 round mags for it. It’s practically the size of a G27 then.

[@chriscosby2459]

I have three Glocks, a 17, 22, and 27. It There is not much difference in recoil and control with the full size Glocks in 9mm and .40. But there does seem to be quite a bit of difference between the baby Glocks. If I had it to do over, I would probably have got the 26 or even the 23 instead of the 27.

I hate to say this considering that I open carry at work a Glock 22 but I'm not a fan of Glock's sub compact handguns. I just don't like the looks of the short fat squatty handgun. I don't have a shortage of other model Glocks. Thanks for the review!
