I believe so. The introduction of the BDM more or less coincided with that of the .40 S&W, after which "the bloom was off the rose" of the wondernines. Plus, the Glock was starting to attract attention, as well as encroachments by Beretta, H&K and Sig on the U.S. law enforcement market. Certainly, FN/Browning tried to be all things to all people with the dual-mode trigger set-up, but hey missed the boat.
