40 cal rumors

[Nitreoxide]

A coworker said a lgs told him not to buy a 40 because the ammo is being discontinued. Anyone else heard this? I can't find anything about anywhere.

Lol no. It won't ever be discontinued. Popularity may go down but that's it.

I see your LGS rumor and raise you an internet rumor: the Army is going to adopt the .40 for its next service pistol.

Yup. .40 S&W is now 10mm NATO. Spread the word.

.40 is being discontinued.

Buy it all now; it will be gone by Sunday.

 

[Nitreoxide]

That's good stuff!

No! The real truth is that the retro craze is hitting the US military. Going to be seeing the 45-70 and 30-40 Krag. There is even talk of the .45 acp!

Think of the money we could save with horses instead of tanks and planes!

They said the same thing about the 38-40 and it's still around.

Strange that a gun shop would say something like that and lose the money off of ammo and new pistol sales. They must believe it or hate the 40 enough to lose income

The gun shop probably didn't have any 40's on the shelf so they had to come up with a reason the guy should buy something else. Like the super deadly 9mm.

 

[Nitreoxide]

You are probably right.

You mean like when Fred told me Ruger had discontinued the 101, and that's why he didnt have any, I should just buy a gp100 instead?

I also heard the new governor signed an executive order discontinuing the lifetime carry license and immediately voiding any that had already been issued.

I heard the Lifetime LTCH is going away to.....and Bigfoot is real....

You must be new to guns, if this is your first encounter with an idiot behind the counter at the gun shop.

.40 is going away, the LTHC is going away and Dan Wesson 1911s are really Rock Island built guns. That's all for now. My next breaking news report will come when we finally get those photos of the Loch Ness monster. Stay tuned.
