I carry M&Ps because that's what's issued by my current employer; I switched over to them in my personal life because they're good guns--and very good, once you ditch the factory trigger. I come from the 1911 old school, but the M&P is simply the better gun. And HK is better than both. If you ever get the chance to run HKs hard, for an extended period of time, up against other pistols, you will understand. I'm not speaking from gun-culture mythology, brand loyalty, or fanboy nuthugging; it'd simply the better gun. Quote:

If I didn't already have my SIG I'd probably have to pick up this STI. It's very pricey though.

Is the expensive ammo and smaller capacity mags of the .45 ACP worth it considering modern 9mm HP designs? Does it offer real advantages over the 9x19 Para?

There is nothing wrong with the 9mm Luger cartridge.

Also, you want to talk about slow rounds, this thread is dedicated to a pistol chambered in one. Quote:

I didn't invent the phrase. Compared to its parent cartridge, it is slow and weak. Quote:
You need to look up "fact" in the dictionary, too. Yeah, because of that "fact", we all carry catapults and ball bearings into battle instead of using explosives to launch aerodynamic projectiles at supersonic velocities through steel tubes. Yeah, because of that "fact", .45 ACP will penetrate body armour that 5.56 NATO won't. You are aware of the fact that, just because you say something is a fact, doesn't make it so, right? Quote:

Most Glocks do. The subcompacts do not. If you want a subcompact auto that is dead-nuts reliable with the parts installed at the factory, you're going to have to pony up for an HK or a Detonics. Quote:

Longbaugh, fact: the penetrative ability of bullets is relative to the penetrable nature of the target material. Bare flesh is far less resistant than kevlar or steel, so less that a heavier and slower bullet than a faster, lighter and smaller diameter one is at no disadvantage against unarmored opponents. Though, for any bullet traveling at a FPS slightly lesser than supersonic velocity to be called 'slow' is a matter of individual perception, not technical definitions.
Other than that, I think you need to pull the bone out of your ass and read a lot more, because there's a serious flaw with the foot-pounds theory of bullet effectiveness. To begin with, it's utter shit. http://firearmstactical.com/pdf/fbi-hwfe.pdf |

Simo, caliber isn't everything, nor is velocity, longbaugh. I personally carry an N-frame .38, using 200 grain lead wadcutter hollowpoints. The reason should be obvious -- high sectional-density outperforms all other factors at predicting bullet penetration (in flesh and bone). It's not everything, but it is the most important.

You might want to look up "sencitive" in the dictionary. Hint: it's not in there. Quote:

Simo,
I am sorry for offending you. My remarks were meant to be amusing and sounded much funnier in my head. I hope that you will accept my apology. Ray, I need to read more? Fuck you and your armchair.
