Bad guys don’t stand around at close range waiting to be shot. They flail, hide behind things and often shoot back with large caliber rounds.

The most popular caliber carried by criminals is .380 auto. In really poor neighborhoods they prefer even smaller.

“The most popular caliber carried by criminals is .380 auto.”

I really doubt that. That caliber was nearly impossible to buy the last two years. I had to get on waiting lists just to get a box of 20.

Keyword: OFTEN, Not "most" or "majority."

Also for many of us, the bad guys encountered aren't cookie-cutter statistical work-a-day criminals in poor neighborhoods you imagine.

Bad guys could be a jealous ex with a 12 gauge, a redneck with a nice collection or a real-world Hadji with an AK.
