9mm is too small. If it was a 10mm or better yet a .45 the taxpayers would be spared the expense of medical treatment for a rapist.

Except for the caliber it was a fine shooting.

It said a 9mm rifle, never heard of one before but that would be large for a rifle.

9mm is perfectly adaquate. Depends on the round used. If these had been Noseler XTP hollowpoints, the perp would be dead. As it is, it was probably standard 115gr FMJ. Good for poking small holes in paper, useless for almost anything else.

All of those are fairly unusual calibers for rifles. The only .45 I can think of off the top of my head is an old Thompson submachine gun.

A 9mm rifle?
