1. AMMUNITION IS CHEAPER/MORE PRACTICE
I reload my 45acp. Costs me $6 a box.
2. 9MM IS A GOOD STOPPER WITH GOOD AMMO
It's good, 45acp is better(bigger holes to bleed out faster)
3. MORE STYLES OF HANDGUNS TO PICK FROM IN 9MM
There could be thousands more styles, I wouldn't G-A-S. Only need one 45.
4. HIGHER CAPACITY THAN LARGER BORES
When you're good with a gun, you don't need to spray'n pray.
5. LESS RECOIL
Debateable. 9mm snaps, 45acp more of a push.
6. LESS WEAR/TEAR ON FIREARM
Untrue, in every sense.
7. SLIGHTLY TAPERED DEISIGN OF CARTRIDGE LESS PRONE TO JAM
Opinion, not factual.
8. LESS WORRY ABOUT OVERPENETRATION
45acp travels slower then 9mm.
9. CARRY GUNS IN 9MM ARE MORE COMPACT THAN 45ACP
Some are, some aren't.
10. 9MM HANDGUNS ARE GENERRALY MORE ECONOMICAL TO PURCHASE
Opinion, not factual.
I'm not trashing the 9mm. IMO, it's just not worth 20 cents a round. Just like 38spl isn't worth the 31 cents a round for WWB at wallyworld, but I can reload it alot cheaper and in many different variations. 9mm is small and a PITA to reload to any great satisfaction, at least in my equipment. Hey, if it works for you, great. Have at it. My family is protected by 12ga first, then my 45acp.
