With all the problems with ammunition going on. What Cal.handgun do you think is the 'best 'buy right now for a S.D. carry gun? & Why?
He's right about the ammo part..40 is everywhere here, and has been throughout the entire panic.9 is good for SD on all accounts you just mentioned. Too bad it is among the first to run dry when the ammo panic strikes.
People are still having trouble coming up with 9mm ammo - more so than most other common SD calibers.
What I have noticed, in my area at least, is that you can get .40 S&W the easiest come panic time. That being said, my answer to the OP is .357, simply because you can use .38 special too and usually you can at least find one of the two somewhere. Keep in mind that I am only speaking strictly in terms of panic availability, and nothing more.
What is the inverse to that? Is there an inverse?You will see many people say that "a hit with a .22 (.380, 9mm, etc) is better than a miss with a .45" as if those were the only two options. I've never seen anyone claim the inverse to be true.
Shhh. Are you trying to start an internet war or something? Comments like that can cause a thread to get 500 posts in an hour.Caliber does not matter. When it comes down to it 9mm, .40, .357 sig, .45 acp, .38 special etc, they are all pretty much the same.
