Why are most of the swingers i find in there late 30' early 40's

Well as it's been mentioned, that has a lot to do with the amount of committment in a relationship that is required to consider this sort of lifestyle.

I think tho that more and more younger swingers are discovering this lifestyle early on due to the internet and other means. It used to be something that you only knew about through word of mouth or through the occasional print magazines that weren't that easy to come by either. Now days it's everywhere so more and more people know about it and are thinking about it at an earlier age.

im 19 and my boyfriend is 29 and we are having a hell of a time finding anyone to "swing" with in our own age

One issue here is that you are two different age brackets. He is old enough to fit into the 30's crowd while you are still pretty young. Sounds to me like maybe you have issue regarding age and are a little too stuck on finding someone YOUR age to play with. Relax and keep an open-mind. If your boyfriend is almost 30 then it won't kill you to swing with people who 30. Granted once you get much older than that you get into that bracket of people who could be your parent and that can get a little weird.

Just keep an open mind and if the two of you are really committed to each other and to getting into this lifestyle, it'll happen.
