[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3768154, member: 45773"] I can't believe people are still talking about "energy transfer" and "handgun stopping power". I thought those myths were exposed long enough ago they would've died by now. I do agree with the writer of the article that even small caliber guns are usually sufficient for most people, especially if that's what they're comfortable shooting. My own anecdotal evidence is this: over 15 years on the street I saw a lot of people who had been shot by handguns and had the opportunity to speak with many of them. None of them...zero percent...complained about being shot with a gun too small in caliber. Rarely got to speak with anyone shot by a rifle... [/QUOTE]
