different types of .40 ammunition

[knudsen15]

Today I was told that there was a round called a .40 AE, i've heard of .40 S&W and 10mm but I have never heard of the AE. there is a .41 AE and a .50 AE and I figure AE stands for action express. I can't find anything on this .40 AE, can someone help me out and maybe tell me what kind of weapon it shoots from if it exists. thank you and Semper Fi

I'd bet they were talking about the .41AE. Only other .40 I know about is the .400 Corbon

There's a pretty exhaustive list of handgun cartridges here also, but no .40AE (though there is a 9mm AE on the list I never heard of before):

Stop believing everything you hear at gun stores. Next thing you know they'll be trying to sell you beach front property in WY.
