Depends on context.
Anyone have any idea what round they're going to be issued with those? I did a quick search but didn't come up with anything.

Well, although I am a fan of the .40 S&W, I am also a fan of the 9mm Luger. To answer your question, I would say the cost of 9mm versus .40 could be one factor. Another factor is that the average police qualification scores are a little better with the 9mm versus the .40 S&W. But one also has to take into account the 9mm is not the 9mm of even a decade ago. The ammo has gotten better in terminal performance than what it used to be. JMHO.Anyone know why a lot of agencies were quick to hop on-board the .40 cal when it came out, but now are switching back to 9mm?

My theory is that even LEO's like to have a new gun/caliber every now and then too. We in the public sector aren't stuck carrying the same 'ol gun everyday, so why should they? The 357 wheel guns they carried back in the goog old days made holes in ****, then the 9mm made holes, then the .40 made holes and then back to the 9mm for for a hole reunion. I'd love to see hole technology take us back to the 38 specials, now that's back when holes were holes.
Science and technology were introduced into bullet manufacturing and they figured how to get .40 (or better) performance out of a 9mm...........plus ya usually get a couple extra bullets in the mag.
They've had them for a while. No idea what they are issued for ammo.
