    Just wondering if any Police departments/agencies or militaries (in Europe or N. America) use a Steyr pistol as their sidearm? what about Austria I figured if anyone used them it'd be there, or did Glock dominated everything?

    that's right almost ....... but some agents (similar to FBI in US) trust in M40's because the 9mm isn't enough and glock's .40 series are crap. remember glock is designed for 9mm steyr for .40 S&W. ....so less malfunktions with the M40 compared to G22/23/27/35.
    I prefer my M40 for duty issues...........
