    Default Brother-in-law & .40

    Ok , Brother-in-law is new to our sport.
    He is looking to by a handgun, will be his first, and he wants
    a .40 cal. Why? I don't know but he's set on that caliber.

    I would guess it will be all around use. Home, personal defense, target.

    Advice please----What would you buy??

    ~THANKS~

    There's a Beretta 96D in the classifieds here on the forum right now (not mine) which is a nice .40 cal.

    one can often find police trade in Glock 22s. Good gun, not my first choice, but if a .40S&W service pistol is what he wants this is a good value.

    Glock 23. Reliable, concealable and accurate enough to get the job done.

    I think that the G23 is a great pistol and you can convert to 9mm or 357sig
