The Oregon State Troopers carry .40 caliber.

Baby Face Nelson was hit seven times in the chest with .45 caliber from a Tommy Gun and lived long enough to kill his assailant.

There are no guarantees.

Should also point out that Tommy gun was shooting FMJ ammo. FMJ in .45 does indeed suck but it doesn’t suck as bad as 9 mm or .40 caliber FMJ ammo sucks. Remember, “A 9 mm MAY expand but a .45 NEVER shrinks!”
