Are 40 caliber bullets supersonic?

Some .40 caliber bullets are supersonic and some are not; it depends on the load. Generally lighter bullets (155 grain or less) will be supersonic, and heavier bullets (165 grain or more) will be subsonic, although there are a couple 165 grain bullets out there with advertised velocities about equal to the speed of sound. No matter what bullet you purchase, if you feel like subsonic/supersonic is a difference-maker to you, then check the manufacturer's specifications on the ammunition you're purchasing.

15 and up. Actually, it depends. Many police departments in the U.S. use .40 caliber handguns. Some Glock handguns (the model 22, for instance) hold 15, but the Glock 23 holds 13. Sig .40 caliber handguns hold 12. That said though, some agencies still use 9mm, although, depending on the model, some of those hold 11 or 12 also.


Difference between a 9mm pistol and a .40 pistol?

The .40 caliber fires a larger, more powerful cartridge than the 9mm. which is about .35 caliber.

For instance, a Glock 19 and a Glock 23 are the same exact guns, but the 19 is a 9mm and the 23 is a 40...the 23 holds 2 less rounds.
