Still want a 10mm! But there is a 45acp at a local shop that I would love to have!

Only a 9mm but I like it.. carries 13+1

I think people have the same idea with handguns as they do with most things. Bigger is better. But like the article said( and most big caliber people over look) shot placement is the key.

I would be a lot more scared of the guy with the 9mm who knows how to use it than the guy with the .45 who shoots it every once in a while.

But you better watch out for the guy that runs pistol courses with his .45 :w2:

True. But I always wonder, All these people who have guns and make such a big deal of carrying them around, how many of them can use them well?

I go to the 25 yard shooting range here... Most people shoot at 7 yards and jump up and down putting them on a silhouette target.. But what the heck they have the biggest and baddest guns....

Me I try and practice at 25 yards... Figure if I can hit it at 25 yards then I can hit it closer with just the front sight... Especially since in a stress / rapid situation we only see the front sight anyway...

Thats a good point, 21 feet for a CC course isnt very far.

Don't get me wrong, I have guns and I like to use them. I think the article brings out some pretty good points. But it seems to me that most of the comments of the people posting were about using the biggest guns and not so much the most important aspect of the article. Which would be accuracy.
