Partly because of the two shooters at Fort Hood who were shot with 9mm and continued to fire, I have really soured on 9mm.
I have felt for a long time that .45 ACP was my best minimum round.
I like the big lead with the soft recoil, I guess.
“.45 ACP was my best minimum round.”
For a semi-auto, I like the .45 acp as well, but hollow points for self defense are a must. Ball ammo is particularly impotent, especially at low velocity like the military loads. My first choice for self defense is an M-1, but it’s kinda hard to conceal!
Have you ever fired a judge yet?
Long colt 45...recoil is almost non-existent.
Nice revolver...
