There is far more manliness (or womanliness) in accepting the responsibility of carrying than there will ever be in how many of which round one chooses to carry.

Seasoned trainers all, they all seem to believe that being able to shoot lots of rounds downrange faster AND more accurately is important...
Agreed...pithyThatis the most insightful statement made on this forum in a long time.

(But only for carry -- the 1911 is still The King -- just as Elvis, though dead, is.)
For LEOs, military and folks that make a living protecting property or people and that have a good chance of engaging in a drawn out gun-fight it's a different story.
Yep we women can step in for you guys.Don't worry y'all. You menfolk can put down your .45's for a while. Let the women happily pick up the slack!
That agency has continued to issue 9mm weapons to a relatively small number of agents. Disparate impact issue. (Meaning some agents might require a smaller grip frame and/or a lesser recoiling duty weapon.)Didn't we hear that the FBI is going to go back to the 9x19? don't know if it's true or not
I know that the department I work for switched back to 9mm. A few others are discussing it because of budget issues. The difference in ammo price between .40S&W and 9mm can pay for more frequent tactical training. That is where the main difference is going to come from. The guys that train most often seem to fair better in real world encounters. IT becomes muscle memory.actually...from what I've followed lately...the 9mm seems to be making a huge resurgence in Law Enforcement circles...
