Who cares how far it goes through your ballistics gel. Would a 9mm round through the chest just "piss you off"? If you believe that you are one ignorant sob

ignorant sob[/QUOTE]
I'm just giving facts and I don't remember calling anyone names on he and the only ignorant person here is the one that has to resort to cussing someone over the Internet. This is only done because the person doing the cussing is to ignorant to use anything but a cuss word because his vocabulary is not that broad. Hope I didn't use to many big words for you. If you would like a dictionary to look up the words used let me know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk. Apple dominating the WORLD |

.45 ACP period for me. I was in the USMC when they switched to 9mm and everyone who could kept their 45's. The Marine Corps pistol team never switched nor did Recon. Now they are going back to 45's after poor performance in Iraq and Afghanistan Corps wide. That speaks volumes. The majority of LEO's i know choose .45's or .357's if they have a choice. If I ever have the need to shoot someone I want them to STOP right there, a .45 does that. Just my .02

I'm with McNabb I'm not a hand gun guy but if the bullet didn't bounce off your gel that means it will drop a motha frigger

If you're going to speak about someone's limited vocabulary, at least have decent grammar skills...

I have all 3 calibers I've shot all 3 calibers....no doubt .45 acp is the most devastating round down range...but I'd deff trust my life with my Springfield xdm 9 mm and all 19 rounds of hell that is in it...all 3 will kill a man PERIOD...I may stop u in one shot from my glock 21 which is why I love this round but I'm also telling you If I don't stop you in 1 shot from my 9mm xdm I will have 18 more to follow and I practice a whole lot to assure I will be as devastatingly accurate as possible in a situation I need to be

Carry what you will, nobody is a lesser being based on their caliber of choice.
This debate will never end, but the fact remains that either of these rounds placed properly will dispatch a man - all have been doing so for many years. Like proper shot placement, proper spelling and proper punctuation are a must in any confrontation... There's no stopping power without proper placement, no matter what is being thrown. |

Collin Ferguson boarded a train and shot over 20 people with a 9mm. Some in the head. Out of all the people he shot, I think only 2 or 3 died. A 9 is not an effective weapon especially against a cracked out thug.

I never heard about that one... Interesting. Old thread coming back to life? This is about the only place I can read about guns right now, the rig I'm on has a block on every gun related site I've tried. It's brutal!!!!!!!!!!! |

Not necessarily. It might take 4 bullets from a 9 to drop a "motha frigger" which means while you are shooting him he is still shooting at you.

The most effective caliber is the one you can shoot accurately. You wouldn't give your 7 year old a 10 gauge to take teal hunting and expect him to drop em every shot. No, because he can't accurately handle that size weapon. If you can shoot a great pattern and double tap a .45 accurately, then that's your caliber. If you can't then try .40. Still can't? Try 9mm. Still can't? Try .380. I'd rather be missed by .50 cal than hit by a .22. Debate over.

Not really! With practice, any caliber that you choose you can be accurate with. You should always practice. Simply buying a pistol and sticking it in your pants won't really cut it without practice at the range. Choose a round, choose a gun that fits your hands nicely and then load up on ball ammo and go to the range. Go to the range often. Stay practiced up. The more you practice the more accurate you will be. So there, debate over!!

If you look at all the shootout videos today, you will see that most of the thugs perpetrating the crime will turn tail as soon as they see their "victims" are also armed. They don't care what caliber it is. They just know this mo fo has a gun too, and he looks like he's actually trained with it. I don't care what you carry, JUST CARRY! |

Oh come on people. The purpose is to stop the threat with one shot! Otherwise, you are still getting shot at by the perp. You are in an extremely tense situation when it comes to a shoot out. You may not be the most accurate with 10 lbs of adrenaline beating your brains out. So why choose a pellet gun or a .22? That's nuts! All this well placed shot stuff, like you just going to be standing there able to take careful aim. All you can do is aim somewhere center mass. You don't get to take the time to aim and shoot the heart. This ain't deer huntin.
