Why not to depend on Wiki-anything for answers

If you are going to shoot a target on the head, aim for the neck or chest as the recoil rises the gun which also rises the bullet from going forward. This is very handy if you have a target which you will aim for the head. Even aiming at his arm may hit his/her head.

Dang, if recoil happened before the bullet exited we would all be hitting the rafters, especially with those snappy .40's

i actually did a cpl class recently over the weekend with my woman. i took part in the range qualifying as a guinnea pig for some situations and different tactical shooting situations. my snappy 40 call hit the targets each time in the needed area. its not bad once you learn to handle the recoil and snappyness. and it takes less to stop a threat than a 9mm. where you may need 2-3 shots from a 9mm a 40 may only need 1

Saw this on the MOC fb social page (who knew we had one? I didn't until now).

.45 ACP, the midlife crisis of calibers.

So you have "habitual compromise disorder"?
When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace. Luke 11:21

Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one."  Luke 22:36

lmao. i didnt compromise. i tried alot of different guns and settled on this gun in this caliber. me being a bigger guy, i can handle the snappiness and the muzzle flip of the .40 on my SD very well. i dont feel as though the gun is trying to jump out of my hand.

we preach go with what feels right and what you can shoot well. for me its the .40 in a SD from smith

.358 was a typo. dicks lol :)

An if you want a little extra punch with the .40S&W you can go to a +P load. Or a  +P+ .40S&W load.

Oh wait, my mistake. There is no such thing as a +P or a +P+ .40S&W.

Nevermind.
