Take the published Damage, reduce it by 2 and increase the Rcl by 1.
Thus 2d+2 pi+ becomes 2d pi+ and 2d+1 pi+ becomes 2d-1 pi+... and so on.
For SMGs and pistol caliber carbines, only reduce the damage.
I think this accurately portrays the real world damage relative to 9x19mm and .45 ACP.
To the contingent that thinks that because .40 is a more modern round than those and deserves to do more damage, the modernity is reflected in the weight and number of shots. Glock is a good place to see it. A Glock 21 gets 13+1 shots of .45 and weighs 2.4 lb. loaded magazines are 0.8 lb. A Glock 22 gets 15+1 shots of .40, weighs 2.1 lb. with magazines which are 0.7 lb.
I am tempted to say where the stats are derived from a 9mm gun, increase ST by one as well. The only gun in High Tech 4e that's .40 S&W as the main table entry is a Kahr K40 and it's ST is 8, same as a Glock 17. All of the other pistols stats are based on the stats from the 9mm parent gun.
