No — stops inside concrete (reaches 31 mm of a 100 mm barrier)
Penetration depth

Muzzle energy
527 J (388 ft-lb)
Bullet behaviour
Intact
Fired at the muzzle, a representative .40 S&W load (11.7 g, FMJ, 300 m/s) reaches roughly 31 mm (1.2 inches) into concrete. It loses its energy before defeating a typical barrier of this material.
