Come on folks. I can't believe that this thread is so tame. I've seen these type posts just explode before. What's different about this one? Where are all the rabid believers in their beloved caliber?
 Pass me some popcorn.  |

My pal is a rertired bullistics expert from the State Police. He and I were .45 guys.
He swithced to 9mm with HP's and tells me the new 9mm HP stuff is the most deadly stuff you can use on humans. The body counts seems to prove him correct. Dead is dead. I now carry my 9mm with Speer Gold Dot 147 gr +P HP and don't worry. I've got 18 chances of being a dead eye shot. A hit any where on a human causes a leak. Leaks sink ships and bleed out animals. Even our troops are doing well with the 9mm and it is BALL AMMO, the worst load for the 9mm, and it still does the job. All I know is anything shot with a 9mm HP needs a doctor or undertaker. |

I can catch 9mm's in my teeth. 45's I can swat away like flies.

My buddy carries a 9mm Glock and he shot my .45 XD. He said it didn't feel like much more recoil than his 9mm.
Plenty of guys can shoot .45 and handle the recoil. If you can't, by all means, get a 9mm...

I'm not gonna try to derail this train, but I would love to see a new thread that compared the 5.7 to the standard SD rounds. I was looking at getting one, but there were other issues. So, if anyone sees one, would you post please & thank you?!
