I certainly would opt for the .38 Super or varients on the theme if given the option. I have been known to use that caliber for defensive purposes myself. I still long for a lightweight Commander in Super. I need to sell something....

:D

Article 9 read along with Article 11 means hat any caliber "larger" than 9x17 (.380) is legal, except for 9mm parabellum (9x19). As mentioned above 9x18 Makarov is not on the list.

If i understand this right, the length can be more than 17mm, but the girth can't be more than .380? I hate to say it, but 9x18 Makarov is truly 9.25mm.
 
Having lived on both sides of the border, the Mexican law is vague and outdated. I have several weapons still in Mexico. You cannot really purchase them, but if you have them you can register them. Just take them to the military base and sign them up. CCW permits are very hard to get in the northern states, unless you are LEO or Govt. The city govts also will give you a $100 dllr +/- grocery voucher for any firearm you surrender, no matter how old or unusable. You would be surprised what turns up.
