>subcompact .40's Why do they exist?

>>31902893
To shoot the crust off your moms pussy before going in deep.

>>31902893
Because sometimes people buy them. Supplying for a demand.
Capitalism, bitch.

>>31902893
because people can't fucking shoot well

>>31902893
The number one reason I can think of is that their larger pistols are also in .40 and it simplifies logistics.

>subcompact .45's

Why do those exist.

'sall good, .45 will drop anyone in one shot guaranteed!

>.40s
Why do they exist?

What's the point of a subcompact anyway? A lot of them only hold 6 or 7 rounds, the lack of capacity kind of defeats the point of an automatic. At that point I'd rather carry a .357

cause you can't shoot major with a 9mm in any other division besides open.

Someone's buying them, they have purpose to someone. You can't say they are 'absolutely' useless. I can say that you are absolutely useless because you can't understand how someone would have use for a subcompact .45, such a simple thought is beyond your reckoning ergo you're useless, kys.

>>31905490
100% right

>t. fag who bought a .40 S&W SR40C for his first gun

Yes, why would somebody want a more powerful round in a pistol with an abbreviated barrel?

Christ, just because top tier loads work pretty well in service pistols doesn't mean they'll be as effective out of subcompacts, nevermind el-cheapo loads.
