I've got a 40 Tactical which I love to shoot - the longer slide is quite helpful and for me it's very accurate. I put a heavier spring in it, but even with the stock spring, recoil is no big deal. Check out www.pdhsc.com - they are near me and last week they had 2 Tac 40's and a Tac 9, all black. Their prices are reasonable and they're great to work with.
