Ive been reading all the calibre wars between 9's and 45's while looking for the best carry load for my GLOCK 17 (ive narrowed it to between GDHP and Hydroshok) and came across the concensus...
Many people believe the 9mm is a walk away round.
There are many people involved in "illegal" shootouts shot by 9x19's who have been patched up.
I am under the understanding that even a 38 to the heart/head will kill someone dead. Yet many people are living through 9mm shots.
Here is the question: Am I right to assume that perhaps these people who were hit in Non-Class A (instant death) areas, were hit with ball?
"This gang-member was shot 7 times and walked to the hospital"
"There are many prisoners here shot with 9mm, none with .45's"
I have a hard time believing that one 9mm Gold Dot to someones lung at 10 yards would not bring them down intantly.
Am I pretty correct in this observation.
Oh, and I dont care to read about the differences in calibres. I just want to know if there is a rating system between 9mm bullets.
Thanks,
Jesse
