Is there a debate between the 9mm luger/parabellium round and the 40cal? Wait one minute the debate for decades between the 9mm luger round and the 45cap never ended yet.
The only thing the 9mm has going for it is the double stack mags and fire power. Firepower means how many bullets in the magazine. The amount of shots. It's not the stopping power or killing power of the 9mm it lacks in those two things. No question the 9mm is out of the debate. The 9mm never impressed me power and stopping wise. A side arm for hunting I don't think so.
The Leos had 38's with 6 rounds to the bad guys 9mm with 18 rounds. They weren't out gunned power wise. Just the amount of shots fired.
40 vs 45?
It's between the 40cal and the 45acp. What do you guys think?
Is the 45acp outdated?
Is the 45acp when compared to the 40cal similar to comparing the 45 long colt to the 44 Magnum.
Is it a lighter bullet, more speed vs a heavier bullet, slower speed?
