9mm vs 45 --- which one is better?

<< < (2/5) > >>

Chris C:
I carry a .45 because they don't make a .46.   





FYI I don't carry a .45.

  smith and Wesson makes a .460. so I guess they do make a 46!

Another good writing job (makes me feel like a cave man scratching on a wall :(). 
It's critical to know how to operate your weapon, which means being able to present it and hit what you aim at.
I personally have 9mm pistols for carry purposes.  I imagine Hornady critical defense ammo will do its part if I do mine.

I just had a younger guy at work who is my apprentice tell me that he would rather carry a sling shot than a 9mm because they are equally effective....haha...

I asked him where he gained this information & what ballistic tests he had looked at & he replied 'its common knowledge'.

I just smiled & made him go dig up some conduits in the frozen ground.

I have people at work ask me questions similar to that more frequently than I care to count. 

An abridged answer goes;

I feel that someone needs to be comfortable with what they are shooting.  This applies ten fold in self defense situations.  One hit with a 22 is better than 8 misses with a 45.

Personally, I choose the 45.
