The G40 seems a fine pistol and gets near all one can from a 10mm handgun, what with it's 6" tube. But it is a lot of gun to carry around. Even when I was thirty years younger, I got a bit tired of lugging 6" magnum revolvers about on foot in the boonies. The G20 forced most all of my magnum revolvers into semi-retirement because it was lighter and carried so much easier.

The longer G40 has a place, most likely as a hunting pistol. But much of hunting is sitting and waiting, not wandering all across the country side. For general woods wandering, afoot, I'll stick with the shorter lighter G20.
