In another thread (Why Carry a .45?), this statement was made:
"EMT's rule of thumb: The guys shot by 9mm's usually live. The guys shot by .40's and .45's usually die."
Now, carrying that effectiveness further... I know it's a really "new" caliber, but are the real world reports coming in about the .45 GAP? How does it fare against our venerable ACP? I'm wondering because I really like the feel of my G17, and the simplicity of a Glock. It would be great to have .45 ACP effectiveness in a Glock package without it being the club thickness of a model 21.
I know, ideal would be a Glock .45 that would use all our 1911 mags that we already own... but that ain't gonna happen...
