Another thing that upset me about the 9mm was it jammed one time and then...

A, If you are going to shoot regularly, get great hearing protection. I use a set of molded IN my ear soft plastic plugs (had it done at a gun show locally) and hearing muffs. If I had it to do over again, I would have taken better care of my hearing. But I lost my hearing at conversational levels before I was twenty.

the 360 is 380acp and i'm betting the 40 is actually a 45acp, given your description of the recoil.
