The 40 S&W is a fine round. I own two 40 cal pistols. The recoil difference in my Gen 4 Glock is much less then other 40 cals I've owned. But I find myself shooting my 9mm more often then not and the price of 45acp isn't much more then 40S&W. In my area Police Depts. have been getting away from the 40S&W with many PDs and State agencies going to 45acp and a some going with the 357sig. The 357 sig round is still being pushed by Sig arms.
