"40 is very snappy like a 357 mag?"
Hmmm. Can't agree with this. Carried four different guns during my career, .357, .45, 9MM, and 40 cal. Like the 40 cal best and It is nothing like a .357 (which I carried for years when I first started). The 40 cal is a lot like a .45, though I like it better as it can be carried on a smaller frame with more rounds. the 40 is nice because you can shoot deer in town. Knocks them down - doesn't go through them and into someone's garage or house (if you hit them in the shoulder). Much safer in that respect. Also like the 40 cal because the gun is so light and doesn't give you hip ache. Banging off a magazine of .357 from such a light frame would be more work to controll. With the 40 cal - you don't have to think about it.
I've certainly never thought of it as "snappy." You wouldn't be thinking of the 10 MM, would you?
