Well there ya go. 9 - 45. Either one will ruin your day.

But just a thought. The Wehrmacht lost.

If I was outfitting the US Services? 10mm full house loads.

The .45ACP was designed to stop Philippine moslem Juramentados when it was found the .38 Colt did not work.

The .38 Colt users ended up dead before the Juramentado bled out.

People have mentioned a shot in the heart. While that will kill, it won’t stop the determined. We had a great cop in my church. Phoenix office John Hobbes. He was shot through the heart and still got off a full mag killing the felon AFTER being shot through the heart. The details weren’t reported in every news article, but I took by CCL with a fellow officer who had just retired and he explained it in detail.

I agree. I have four in 9mm (Sigs and HK) and three 1911s (Colt, S&W, and Dan Wesson Valor)

That’s no fun. Everyone should have an assortment of 9 and .45.

You will not be disappointed. “The Red Cliffs of Zerhoun” had my on the edge of my seat the whole time, even when the crew was planning their next move. And that female lead... wow, I thought Ranya Bardiwell from the first 3 books was something. I think Bracken must know some very tough ladies to use for character reference.

Well, not to be too rude for the reich fans, but the Germans have never won ANY war I’ve ever heard of.

Ah, haven't seen a caliber holy war thread in a while. I'll cut to the chase: the best caliber to use is the one I have at the moment and you're a gay Nazi mother-grabbing Commie and possibly even a Rotarian if you use anything else.

.25 ACP, baby. It actually goes back in time and kills their grannies too.

I'm a fan of the 1911 (carried one in SEA), but my carry gun now is Browning Hi-Power in 9mm. I can shoot it more accurately, and it holds more rounds.

Take a look at the New CZ P10-C supposed to have best trigger of any striker fired gun you can buy.
Its a 9mm I am weighting for it to come out as a sub compact for carry since its larger than my .45 Glock 30 S.

This is a pistol that will be hard to beat.

You want a sweet trigger in an auto, look at the Kahr K9.
