What would you say are the biggest pros/cons between going with the SR40 or the SR40c (aside from size and feel).

[Gunblastdotcom]

Size and feel are the only differences that matter. There is a slight velocity advantage to the longer barrel, but not enough to make a real difference.

Hey Jeff, I am trying to make a decision between the sr9c and sr40c for my carry gun. Would you recommend the 40 over the 9 because of more stopping power?? Also does the 40 have a considerable amount more of recoil than the 9? Thanks in advance and really enjoy your reviews!

[Gunblastdotcom]

I would not. Personally, I prefer the 9mm.

I have been told from some police officers that a .40 is better if I ever did have to defend myself because a 9mm would pass through more objects after the person. Does the 40 have alot more recoil than the 9? Thanks!

[Gunblastdotcom]

The 40 does have more recoil. Penetration depends upon bullet shape, construction, velocity, and sectional density. The 9 does not penetrate more than the 40, or anything else, with those things being equal.

Both are very good, but I prefer the Ruger.
