.45 ACP. It was designed to stop a horse.
Think that was the .45 LC.
Believe the .45 ACP - was designed to stop a 300 lb. machete-wielding, drug-crazed, charging Muslim Moro.

Coonan Arms makes a semiauto 1911 derived pistol that shoots 357 mag and 38 special, and Magnum Research makes the Desert Eagle in 357 and 44. There's also the Automag guns.I would have voted 357 but on the choices it said semiauto for both the 357 and 44?
You don't really think your .45 is more effective than a 5.56, do you?
I am aware of that but not a fan. I prefer a revolver on those cartridges and those guns are pretty rare.Coonan Arms makes a semiauto 1911 derived pistol that shoots 357 mag and 38 special, and Magnum Research makes the Desert Eagle in 357 and 44. There's also the Automag guns.
At close range, the M1911 has a great reputation -- in WWI, the Germans were scared of it in the trenches, where it excelled at close-range combat.

So was the halberd--doesn't make that any more relevant to modern personal defense.
In your opinion.
There. Fixed it for you.
Well game wardens in Norway are issued Glock 20s to defend themselves against Polar Bears. If being able to dispatch a horse is good, then being able to dispatch a polar bear is better. Therefore, anything the .45 can do, the 10mm can do better.
In a smaller way, that is true. Big bullets make big holes. Smaller bullets make smaller holes.Well game wardens in Norway are issued Glock 20s to defend themselves against Polar Bears.

It is a physics thing.
40SW is the compromise caliber that nobody likes to like, but it works for me.
If you are shooting a sheet of paper, I'd say so.So, a .380 is a better stopper than a .338 Lapua? Bigger diameter and all... Or the 90 grain .380 is a better stopper than the .223 since the .223 is only 62 grains. Did you actually ever take physics?
Because .45ACP is the grand dad of them all and still the best. IMHO hdbiker
