This here is the .40 Caliber Semi Automatic Handgun. This weapon firearm was introduced
some years not to replace the 9MM which was commonly used by law enforcement and military
but this one was brought in to augment or give a little bit more stopping power so to
speak for handguns in any encounter that law enforcement or military may encounter. The
round is basically between a .45 Caliber round and a 9MM millimeter round. The .40 Caliber
falls in the middle of it and it has again more stopping power than a 9MM but not quite
as much as a 45. This type of weapon I have here has a slide which performs the action
for the round to be fired. We have a front sight, rear sight, hammer, the trigger and
we have the magazine well where the rounds actually go. This particular weapon can come
in a smaller frame and a larger frame. This one here is considered the medium frame. This
weapon here is very popular amongst law enforcement and military. Again for reasons stated earlier,
they had a little bit more stopping power. There are several different brands of .45
Caliber handguns out there but the round stays the same as far as the stopping power and
the velocity depending upon what ammunition you would use. This weapon will be good for
home defense or personal carry as well as any one of the applications I mentioned earlier.
