When You absolutely must reach out and THUMP someone .45ACP Rules.

I was at a firearm training course in NV.
They were recommending everyone show up with a Glock or 1911.
One person showed up with a Beretta 9m.
We all saw very quickly why you don’t want one.
Clearing a jam while being shot at is a bad place to be with a Beretta.

Beretta Cougar 8045 in .45 is a must have.

I maintained expert level on the 1911A1. I could barely qualify sharpshooter on the M9 as the grip was not suited to my hand and as such I never liked it.

Then my eyesight deteriorated to the point that it has to be a shotgun now.

A tough gun to use for a lot of the GI Janes
