Why then is 9mm carried by police forces across the land? I personally know deputies who have put down perps with their 9mm Glock 19s and SIGs. With pistol calibers, it’s not the caliber, it’s the bullet. And modern bullets are far better than the old FMJ or wadcutters. But, can’t convince the 1911-heads of that.
So the police carry a 9mm and you should too is your response, lol. Maybe you should have read my tagline before trying to school me on bullet construction. I suspect the most commonly found round for 9mm is still FMJ and has been for many years. Every citizen is a perp to a cop as most have noted on here.
