The 9mm is a rifle in a pistol.
The .45 Auto is a slingshot.

I'd rather have a 9mm for personal protection.

Especially in a 15 round clip.

If my 9mm can't stop ONE attacker, then I am not a very good shooter.

If my 9mm can't stop a gang, then I am not using my shots wisely.

Either way, a 7 round clip of ammo pales in comparison to the 9mm.

Some think a .45 is somehow mysteriously capable of extraordinary killing power--like the late Jeff Cooper.

But he is in a wheel-chair, and never understood reason.

Respectfully submitted,
John St.
