has signed up to dump their 40 caliber pistols (like almost all he other Gvt agencies are doing) and going with the Glock model 47. Now like most folks I had no idea what the model 47 is. Glock says it is solely for Gvt agencies like the Border Patrol. It is the Model 45 frame and the 17 long slide.
A lot of folks, government and civilian alike, are dumping the 40 caliber and going with one of the special 9mm rounds. The 9mm has come along so far, so fast that dropping the 40 or 45 and going to the new 9mms you are not giving up anything in power, speed and "knock down".
