I can't add much to what has already been said, but you can find some excellent buys in some very good guns in 40 cal today, due to nothing more than the popularity of the 9mm. Although I'm a die hard 45 guy, I have always respected the 40 cal as an excellent self defense round, especially in shorter barrels, compared to the 9mm. The down side is they are a bit snappy on the recoil, and 9mm is cheaper to shoot and does a pretty good job with proper ammo. I emphasize proper ammo because with 40 or 45 just about any ammo is pretty effective, but with the 9mm you must only shoot the very top of the line ammo to get good EDC results, especially in shorter barrels.
