"Hmm. Title of thread - FBI Miami shootout riddle - seems intrinsic to the conversation right here."
--Doug W.
Sorry Doug, I guess I chose a poor title, because most of the posts are way off of the topic I wanted to raise, which was raised in the post below my title. I guess a lot of people read the title and not the post. I thought they would read the title, say to themselves, "Riddle? What's he talking about," and then read my post.
I really am interested in the apparent catch-22 that resulted in the .40 being chosen over the 9mm by a great number of law enforcement agencies. Overpenetration by the 9mm is often cited as a negative of the 9mm, and I just thought the origins of the .40 with respect to the 9mm not penetrating enough is extremely ironic. I wanted to know what people thought about that. I really wasn't interested in their thoughts about tactics, long-guns vs. short-guns, blame games, etc. But oh well, discussion is fun. Still if anyone would like to respond to the original post, I might think that was more fun.
