Thank you. Showing my ignorance here. Why 40 over 9?

Howdy, I have spent the last 21 years as a forensic scientist specializing in firearms (long before anyone ever heard about CSI!). Anyway, I have owned a number of handguns over the years (Glock, Colt, Sig, Ruger) and have enjoyed all of them. I’m finally getting interested in shooting USPSA and really like all that I have read and watched about STI firearms (particularly the Edge and Tactical). I hope to purchase one of these in 9mm Luger. I’m here to learn from others in this great community and hope to contribute meaningfully as well. Thanks! Darrell

Thank you all for your replies! You've given me much to think about. Sounds like going to a local match is definitely a step in the right direction!

Hello all, So I know that my next purchase will be an STI 2011 pistol. Just trying to make my choice between the Edge, Eagle, or Tactical. Caliber is 9mm Luger. The firearm will be just for fun...not really planning to do any competitive shooting. I know I would be happy with any one of these, but I am looking to you all who own one of these for some advice/insight. Thanks in advance! Darrell

Folks...thank you very much! You've solidified my choice. I'll be sure to check out the new carry gun, MaddHatter as well as the Guardian, Warpspeed!

Thanks, TIm. I appreciate your straightforward reply.

Hello, I am considering purchasing an STI Edge (9mm Luger). I have carried a Glock 19 for years and have no trouble carrying it concealed. What are your thoughts about carrying the STI Edge concealed? I know that there is a size and weight difference compared to the Glock. Just wanted to see if any of you have experience carrying the Edge and what advice you have. Thanks!
