I'm not a fan of the .45 GAP. But then it doesn't come in practically every platform the 9mm does in identical size and weight, with nearly the same firepower, and with defensive ammo at the same or lower cost (surplus LEO ammo!), but giving better performance, with ammo just as commonly available as 9mm and .45 ACP. If the .45 GAP ever manages that, I'll probably be a fan.Well I prefer my pistol ammo to begin with 4 and end in 5 but I would go with the 9mm cause I am not a fan of .40
And what's up with people that call the .40 SW "short and weak" but favor 9mm? Wouldn't the 9mm be "short and skinny and even weaker?"
You serious?i dont care for 40 s&w it doesn't have the speed of the 9mm or the knockdown of the 45acp
??? Have you researched the ballistics of equivlant loads? I mean there are definitely pluses and minuses of the 40 S&W but I don't think the above two are it.i dont care for 40 s&w it doesn't have the speed of the 9mm or the knockdown of the 45acp so my vote is for the 17/(19)
