I lean toward JMB and the .45 and I like 1911s, but I recognize that there are differences of opinion and I will shoot 9mm as long as it's in a Browning Hi-Power.
Brilliant! I fell for it, too: I started to roll my eyes at the tired old .45 ACP argument but, when I read the 9mm argument, I laughed aloud. Exactly captures the pointlessness of the "debate."
I didn't know you had to chose only one. I have a nice S&W in .45 ACP and several nice S&Ws in 9mm. Personally I like shooting 9mm more than 45, but that's me.
I also have several nice S&Ws in .38 Spcl.
Any of the three will suffice quite nicely for self defense.
My brother ask me " Why buy a .45 ?"
ReplyDeleteMy answer " Cause they don't make a .46"
Well, if those two videos don't reignite the debate (did it ever really stop?), nothing will.
ReplyDeleteM1911A1 for the win!
I carry my little revolver in .38 special more than anything else...

I'll stick with the Colonel's Original Recipe: .45LC. :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd .45-70 in my rifle!
ReplyDeleteYou just HAD to do that didn't ya... :-) I'll stick with one (or two or three) of each, thank you very much! :-)
ReplyDeleteTrying to stir things up, are we??
ReplyDeleteMy humble vote....45ACP.
And a 1911 to use it in....

ReplyDeleteFord vs. Chevy? That has some merit.
Ya notice that their prices for a thousand rounds of either 9mm and .45acp, but at the 20 round and 50 round boxes there is some pretty big disparity.
ReplyDeleteThey actually have some ammo! Thanks for the link BP. (I just ordered some 9mm fwiw)
