We tested four new 40 S&W subcompact handguns: Springfield XD-S 3.3-inch, Smith & Wesson M&P Shield, Kahr's CW 40, and the Taurus G2C, along with a used SIG Sauer P224 SAS 224-40-SAS2B. Which one was the clear winner?

Tested: Iver Johnson Hawk, Taurus 1911 Commander, Kimber Pro Carry SLE, and Desert Eagle's 1911C. Three of the handguns were worth their price. One had defects that knocked it out.
