[QUOTE="sh00ter, post: 3829788, member: 24531"] It was good enough for the Germans...modern ammo makes it even better...the whole argument about 9mm being crap is akin to the rumor that just won't die about Pennzoil having too much paraffin wax in it LOL...The stuff gets repeated for decades and then when what may have been partially true at one point is taken as true decades later. Having said that, my dad loved his 1911 and told me the stories he heard that we've all heard about the Japs going down with one shot in WWII. I do not think there is anything wrong with 45...I just like more ammo and less weight. 40cal...neh. Too close to 9mm for me. At least 45 is significant enough diff to justify if stopping power is your thing. I do wonder how well a compact 45 would have done in the 40-50yrd "Dicken drill" though...I think 9amm saved the day there! [/QUOTE]
