Touche. You are correct about the misses and the training.

I know the Florida Highway Patrol is taught to double tap with the Beretta 92F because of the small caliber.

While a 9mm should stop someone if you hit center of mass, the way training will teach you, I still believe that a .45 will do the damage much better than a 9mm.

Btw, I have a 9mm, and I love it. I also have 3 .45’s and a .40.:)

Every police agency I know teaches their officers to continue firing until the threat is down. It doesn’t matter if they use 9mm or .45.
