The only two 40 handguns I own are a W. German frame Sig P226 and a P229. The P229 was my first Sig handgun and it was made in the 1990s.

I've got a couple metal CZs.

A Tactical Sport .40 and a CZ 75B in .40.

The Tactical Sport is a really big pistol.  Really.  Big.  Pistol.  If I remember mine is up around 3 & 1/2 lbs.  Trigger is unreal.  Like a really nice varmint rifle trigger.  If I don't do some dry firing to re-educate my trigger finger and brain before I attempt my first group with it I usually end up with the first round being a really surprise break - with the sights not exactly where I want them on the target.  In spite of being a Tactical Sport it is not quite as accurate as my polymer framed P07 .40.  Too big and too heavy and to easy on the trigger for me to want to carry it.

The CZ75 B is a nice pistol.  Standard size.  I replaced the hammer with a repro spur hammer from CZ USA and those give the pistol a real nice crisp trigger pull.  I've not used it much but it showed promise before I got myself side tracked with other things.

The other .40's I own are plastic framed and none of them stack up to the plastic framed CZ I mentioned above.

I did have, for a short time a Beretta 90-Two.  Feels good in my hand, smooth, doesn't group like a good CZ.  It's no longer in my possession.
I just keep wasting time and money on other brands trying to find/make one shoot like my P07 and P09.  What is wrong with me?

Only one I have is a 40P. Basically a safe queen. Never got into the 40 caliber.
CZ Fanbot since 1996

Not a cartridge I shoot but FN/Browning made some Hi-Powers in .40 for a while.

The only .40 S&W I currently own is a P226 ASE Elite. It's an excellent pistol that has never had an issue. When shot out of a proper platform, .40 is a great round.

Sort of forgot, but Beretta makes, or used to make, the 90-Two in .40 and I think the 96 is a .40.

I will truncate that request to all metal CZ 40 Cal pistols:

CZ40B
CZ40P - My first CZ
CZ75B
CZ SP01 Tactical - My second CZ purchase was the SP01 tactical.  Technically I added a 40 cal SA slide to make my SP01 Tactical into a 40 but it is nearly identical to the production variant
CZ P-06
CZ Rami
CZ TS/TSO - Most Accurate out of the box (TSO)

Cheers,
Toby
