I would nope not, but if that's what it takes, then that's what it takes.

After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding
this to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our
turn is coming again soon. We stand united against
Islamic extremists.

Some music for reflection if the mood strikes you.

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

Not only do I agree, but I put such into practice. I have a Ruger GP100 in .357. It’s bomb proof: I can put as hot a load in it as want without any fear of it exploding in my hand, giving it the ability to send a heavy load far down range with exceptional energy, it’s very accurate, but most important, it has never failed to go ‘bang’ when I pull the trigger. That being said, as much as I love that pistol, every day I choose to carry my HK USP compact in .45. It won’t throw lead quite as far down range, but I like having the additional rounds between reloading, the faster reload time, and nearly the same reliability as the revolver. But neither compares to some flavor of an SBR. Not even close.
