Let me start. "More bullets is always better!"

"Any caliber that doesn't start with a 4 is just for shooting chihuahas and won't stop an angry goblin."

I agree that .45 is not the best round. They’re big, slow, and expensive. .40 has better ballistics, is smaller, and cheaper. People keep telling me .22 is the best. By your logic it is. I just don’t believe it.

This is my idea of celebrating diversity.

Yes. But the 1911 does have a flawless pedigree.

It was developed specifically to kill muslims.

The .38 Special the officers carried in the Philippines just wasn't up to the job.

go for the Glock 21 or 41 both in 45 ACP both 13 +1

I like the Marines having the choice. My personal choice is the 1911. I took the 4 day combat handgun course at Front Sight. My Colt M1991A1 was the only weapon to go all four days without a malfunction. I sent over 800 rounds downrange that week. 15,000 rounds later, the weapon still puts lead on target.

I know, huh.

The best improvement that is needed, is good bullets. I like Hornady’s new Critical Defense technology. Barrier penetration and hydraulic expansion. This FMJ problem is what needs to be addressed, not caliber.
