The Caliber Wars....I'm so confused...

[magsnubby]

I posted this on another forum. Only 3 people got the joke.

I used to carry a Llame .380 loaded with my home rolled 88 gr. hp's. Then they said "Whatch gonna shoot with that thang? Muhskeeters"?

Then i bought a .38 and loaded it with +p's. But all the experts said the .38 was a lousy man stopper.

So i bought a 9mm. They all laughed and said "Are you crazy? The 9mm is for girly men".

Ah!! A .357 magnum should do the job "Nope. To much muzzle flash and recoil. Git yer self a .40"

So l bought a .40. "Nope the .40 is just a wanna be caliber. Git yer self uh .45 acp".

So i figured the .45 acp had served well all these years so i couldn't go wrong. Now i find out it's just a big ole slow moving bullet that has way to much recoil.

So now i have a safe full of useless guns.

Any body know where i can find a Airweight 2" S&W .500 Magnum with J frame boot grips?

Ain't differing opinions a Hoot !

God, I love freedom of choice !!!!!! And where else in the world could you complain about a whole safe full of variety ? LOL

Edit - PS: You want one of the new 3 shot Jframe .500's ? I heard they are short on capacity !

No One Told You About The 357 Sig???

What you need is a 22 LR bullet that upon exiting the barrel expands till it reaches the size of a school bus ... then your bullet will just run over the bad guy, plus, you will totally impress all the Marion Morrison Club members of America ... hell of a way for one to show his true manhood through firepower.

Available in hollwpoints too

If you want to get rid of all those "inappropriate" guns you bought up until the .45, you can PM me.

Same prob. 8 x.45 or 16x9mm

Lemmee see 8 x 45 = 3.60 Inches of lead

And ...... 16 x .35 = 5.60 Inches

Simple -- Oh 800fps < 1300fps

Easily relate

same conversation in my neck o' the woods. I shoot a .45ACP. The verdict, too big. My wife is all of 100 lbs. and wanted something she could manage, got her a .380. Too small. I'm sure there's an ancient proverb in here somewhere.

The "Ancient Proverb" goes something like this:

Man must let female companion pick own firearm(s). Man is there only to whip out appropriate amount of legal tender, and carry packages to transportation.


Never mind HOW I know, I just know.
