Nope.
Didn't even know there was a .40 S+W club until I saw this thread. Just got my G23 last month.

Why close it?
Sure there isn't much traffic here, but that just means it's easier to keep up with all the posts.

No!! I don't think so Steve
I'm just getting back into the computer, and would miss seeing your green face.
Still have both my 40's, and out of all my pistols they would be the last to leave.
22's, 9's, 40's, and 45's and I like them all.
I don't have the equipment to reload, but I may have to one of these days. But I have been saving all my brass. I just can't seem to get the primers out of those pesky 22's.
See ya later

Bought a 23 and a 27 based on info I read here. Surprises me that more posts aren't here since the 40 is supposed to be so popular, but the nine clubs aren't much different. Keep it open for a goood exchange of info.
p.s. Sportsman's Guide has Federal Classic 155's early generation hydra shock for $59.99 for 250. $56 for club members. They are marked "not for law enforcement" but they shoot extremely accurate in my 23.

As per usual, Koski has too much time on his hands. He's just stirrin' the pot. He's a legend in his own mind, no where else, however.

I just discovered this club and this forum recently. Keep it open. Oh I own a Glock 22.
How about closing this retard thread? :banana:
How 'bout a forum kaboom?

The 40 club is good to keep around. Keep in mind most of the people that shoot the 40 S&W are to busy shooting and buying ammo they are limited in the amount of time they have to post.

I think a lot of the posts that could be posted here in the 40 S&W club end up in the General Glocking forum.

No.
The gun clubs don't get as many posts because there are no direct links.

I think we should close the foe tee forum and open a 32H&R magnum forum.
No. I withhold contributions if that were to happen (no idle threat I tell ya!:thumbsup: ).
I agree with Koski. There are no glock 40s because they all Kaboomed. Can't imagine anyone buying a second one. Only reason I can think of to continue this club is to tell Kaboom stories and caution each other about quicker Kabooms if only one lead bullet goes off in those unsupported chambers. All posters here with un-Kaboomed 40s have NIB pistols and are trying to trade for a 9.
Fact: Glock 40 owners have a higher percentage of paranoia than any other caliber.
Address all replies to Koski.

No! No! No! The volume of negative replies to this thread validates the need to continue the .40 S&W club. Contrary to the opinions of some folks, the G23 and G27 are two of the highest rated carry guns, and are revered for their accuracy and reliability. The absence of complaints about the .40s may account for the dearth of threads, but that's a good thing.

40 is now hotter (more popular) than ever. I know we should keep it current but with all the shotin' brass polishin' reloadin' and more shootin' there is little time for typin':animlol: :shocked:
Lets keep it!:banana: :banana:

I just bought another G22 yesterday.It's a fantastic caliber,the same size weapon as a 9mm with high capacity and balistics that mirror the 45acp,whats not to love about the 40cal:thumbsup:
LE agencies across the U.S. that switched to the 40cal have reported better results then the 9mm.

noo dont close it, I just realized this was here! its too hard to find! put it on the top of the 1st forum page! :D
The Forty is dead reliable in %60 of L.E. and Homeland ,coast guard and Federal holsters . Whats not to like. Its keeps on ticking even if its getting a lick-in. The 23 has been flawless for me and my favorite carry auto and cal.

ah, to heck with it.
yeah, it's obsolete since the .357 sig anyway..
nobody needed a 10mm short to start with..
keep at least a FEW folks from losing their thumbs.....
Heck, even the bangers learned you had to shoot em sideways..:tongueout:
Doesn't look like this proposal will pass.
So, howabout combining Reloading Forum with Ox and Alex Forum. Seems to mostly address same weighty issues, lately.

To all my fans...
Thanks for all of your fine support.
The nays have it.. the motion is denied.
Incidentally, there is little traffic in this club because all who are in it know that the .40 is a fine round, and that just makes for little debate. :)

Am I too late to vote?
I vote NO!
I love me some .40SW club!
No that why we come here g23
Hell no. I love the .40. I don't like the new Glock talk design - can't navigate it - anyone that can tell me how to revert to the old look and feel?
NO:upeyes: If you don't like it don't come here (easy):rofl:
no:supergrin::supergrin::supergrin:
Why close it down??? I think we members are just quiet types. If we don't have anything important of offer, why bother. Keep it open and and check in regularly for the really important tidbits.

11-24-2010, 14:30
No, it could use a little more traffic but it should grow.
If you're gonna start closing dead forums for lack of traffic then start with the Niners.
At least there's a couple of active threads here on the .40 club the Niners is completely dead with nothing but a couple of stickies.
As mentioned if you don't like it don't come here.
.40 haters never seem to miss a chance to find some way to rag on it.

like to know what everyone likes, strong side draw or cross draw??
Kyle1886
03-06-2011, 11:23
Jmott, for me "strong side". You never know when you might be on your belly, knees, etc. and in that position, cross draw is a tad difficult.

I don't think it is unpopular. In fact, among LE is one of the most common calibers. I have several 40's, but must admit 9mm is cheaper to shoot.
The issue here is that people are posting on other forums...
this for example...
