About the Cartridge

This cartridge was developed as a joint venture between Winchester and Smith & Wesson. It was an effort to to create a cartridge with the same power as the 10mm Norma round that the FBI had just started using, but in a shorter case. The shorter cartridge would facilitate accuracy and allow use of a smaller, more comfortable grip frame. The .40 S&W has become the cartridge of choice for many law enforcement agencies in the United States.

Power Punch
By Rbmd20202A on 07 Sep 2021
You definitely know you shot this pistol when you see the sparks fly out the muzzle. Furthermore, it feels like a mule rearing in your hand. This is a try before you buy pistol. After running through a couple of magazines, you’ll want to purchase one of its slightly larger siblings. It’s size is it’s strength for carrying but the power punch of shooting it may cause you to rethink purchasing this pistol.
