Here we go: 9mm vs. .45 ACP

[jjmikolacjik]

I only own what My fiance can shoot and shoot comfortably for when I go out of town I want to ensure she will not have second thoughts about pulling the trigger. I own a personal .45 that i keep locked up when I leave town but I also own 2 .40's that she will shoot without hesitation and 12 in the magazine plus one in the pipe makes her feel comfortable. To me it is a matter of shoot ability for the house hold, if not everyone feels comfortable shooting it then it shouldn't be the houses preferred caliber.

I find this hard to believe. I also find it hard to believe that you did not bring up the contradictory pictures I posted, but then again reading is hard to do.

Exactly.

huh?

i love them both.but if war was going on i would have 45acp and maybe a 9mm as back back up

Let's see, I would start with my AR15 and Mossberg 590a1 (in case of zombies)... full back to my 40S&W... to my Kimber 45 Oh, my 9s would come out if I run outa other ammo...HA

I personally prefer 45. Both definately have their place IMHO. I own both and carry both frequently. I like the light weight and added capacity of most 9mms but I love that big honkin 45 round. To each his own I guess. Each meets the first rule of a gunfight! LOL!
