.40 Cal is going to be around a long time. Lot's of people have talked about selling their .40 cals, but someone owns them somewhere. There are still a lot of LEOs that still carry them. I assume that people are still shooting them.

If one really wants to understand how ammo goes in and out of favor and the support for such ammo, one just needs to look at rifle ammo. While an argue might be made that 5.56 and 7.52x39 dominate there is no lack of choices for ammo, Most of which aren't commonly used by the military or LEO agencies.

I don't own a 40 cal, and to be honest never tempted, but believe that 50 years from now we will still be able to buy a 40 call ammo and a gun to shoot it even if it isn't as popular as it once was.
