Have a good reloading setup and have accumulated a bunch of .40 brass over the years. Wouldn't mind having a .40, and this is the only gun I'd ever buy in .40 because it's fucking cool and was designed around the round.

In MGS2:SoL Tanker chapter, Snake uses a USP 9mm
in MGS Snake uses a .45, but it is the Mk. 23 SOCOM and not a USP

>>
>>28651983
The usp along with a very few other good quality handguns are specifically designed with .40 in mind.

I don't like .40 because it's objectively inferior to the other two calibers but if you want, go ahead.

we really should be supporting him and the 3 others, it was a legit self defense shooting. they were attacked, retreated, attacked again, retreated, and only shot when they couldn't escape the mob after being attacked twice and couldb't out run 30-40 dindus. they got chased over 2 blocks. they fulfilled their duty to retreat.

Not him, but I've got 9 guns and less than 1000 rounds. I rarely shoot my rifles and shotguns and I reload for pistols. I keep a box or two sitting around for the shotguns, I do try to keep .308 around and I need to buy more, and I reload as I shoot with pistols.
>>
>>28656936
I said 1K each, and I have some shotgun and .45 ammo. After I sell my two 9mms, I will get some .45 shotgun, and nugget food.

No anon. If you look at the production numbers from lets say Olin-Winchester and take out the government contract for 40 cal, they make about 4x as much .40 as they do .380 and it sells well. Just because people are buying pocket guns for carry doesn't mean they buy a ton of ammunition to practice with. Also, when the FBI and local agencies switch to 9mm, .40 overflow from Olin alone will drive the price to sub 9mm levels while the price on 9mm will rise as the supply is choked by a govt contract.

Source: Upper tier GBC employee. We are looking at even further development in Mississippi just to handle the changeover.
>>
>>28656697
>.380
>major caliber
Then why is it more expensive than .40, and why isn't it a ISPA or IDPA standard round like .40 is?

Do you have any idea how big a fucking moron you are?

The only worthwhile subcompact carry guns come in 9mm, such as the p938 or 2075 Rami.

Go back to bed, kiddo.

>>28657057

Some people just get pleasure out of owning stuff dude. There are plenty of people that buy cars and they just sit in the garage all the time, and at that point there is no point in keeping gas in them. Your way of doing things isn't the universally correct way.
>>
>>28656914
Between .40, .380, .357, and .38 spc, I have about 5500 rounds give or take 250. Really need to do inventory, I know I only have about 2000 rounds of .223 and 1800 5.56. Have around 1000 shot shells, about 2/3 birdshot for clays, rest is PDX12, 3" 000 buck, and slugs.
>>
>>28657126

>>28657093
Missing the 238 are we? And the PPk, Bersa Thunder.
>>
>>28657120
I bought a p238 for my girlfriend.
She shot my p938 and now wants one of her own.
That alone should tell you something.

The p238 is a nice gun, but there us literally no reason to own one over a p938.

Paying $15+ per box of plinking ammo vs $9.99 a box for superior 9mm is just silly. And the superior choice of good personal defense rounds in 9mm over .380 just nails the coffin shut on the matter.
>>
>>28657057
I have enough ammo for the guns I shoot regularly, I have no worries with my ammo supply. Would you keep 1k rounds for a .380?
>>
>>28657138
I need shotgun ammo, and .45 anything else would be just extra especially since i am in the process of selling my 9mms.
>>
>>28657179

because ammo isnt getting any cheaper
>>
>>28657157
No, see the post below yours.

.380 is a poor choice, and there is no rational arguement to buying .380 over 9mm... if it comes in .380 only, then fuck that model.
>>
>>28657190
Again, would you keep ammo for guns you rarely shoot?
>>
>>28657197
I am more accurate and faster with the 238 over the 938. My target acquisition on follow up shots is much quicker as well meaning a big plus for the 238. Will I get a 938? Probably. Do I carry the 238? Yes, it is a good option when compared to my SP101 while being more concealable than my other carry pistol.
>>
>>28657198

especially so.

for instance:

lets say you only shoot .380 a couple times a year

>buy a couple thousand rounds of .380 in 2016
>current price ~25 cpr
>never have to worry about having to find it in stock/in stock at a reasonable price
>get to enjoy ammo for a while without price increase

i bought a few thousand rounds of nugget food last year, i dont shoot that too often so ill get to enjoy 25 cpr nugget shooting for a few years

if you have a lot of calibers and shoot a lot it makes sense to stock up en masse, can save quite a bit of money over time

It's a niche gun aimed at Vern Troyer.
I have both in my room now, the 9mm is about a half inch longer to accommodate the longer travel, and the grip is slightly wider, That's it. It's still smaller than a Mustang or Micro.
>>
>>28657557

nowadays theyve designed guns to work for it, the problem originally was they were putting 40 into 9mm guns without any mods other than the barrel, hence glocknade maymay
>>
>>28657602

plenty of 9 can perform that well (see: critical duty) but yes 40 is more consistent thats true

It is noticably longer and wider. The P238 is a pocket gun. The P938 is not.

I am in the process of selling my 9mms, and I will eventually get a USPc or P30 to replace the other two.

Right now I have one 12 gauge, a Mosin, one .40, one .45, 2 38spcl one of which is my Pop Pops Model 10, and 2 9mms which are ready to sell. I also have a AR partially built. There is nothing wrong with owning guns of various caliber and purpose.

I used to be worse, I had 4 9mms all about the same size and purpose. I have been selling them off slowly until I will eventually have 2 guns in each of the 3 major pistol calibers. I will have a rifle for combat, and a shotgun for combat, and a slimstack 9mm for summer CCW. Everything else will just be extra. I can afford all of this when I get things turned around in my life, but for now I need to play triage.
