Just change the bullet to a hollow point and the 9mm would do the trick.

Would not trade my M1911 .45 for another gun, period.

Last time I fired an M1911 .45 I couldn't have killed myself with a shot to the temple it was so inaccurate. I'd keep the Beretta, unless they're coming out with an new/accurate .45 design.

Seems to me that a .357 SIG or .40 would be better. 
 
Lighter ammo, higher capacity, and heck of a punch. 
 
Flatter shooting, too.

I wouldn't give a dime for one of those 9mm Berettas. I owned one and couldn't hit the side of the barn and they have no stopping power. I'd rather use a 22.

Glock makes a .45. If they'd add on the stuff the military is asking for, I'd think that would be the gun of choice. Glocks are nearly indestructable unless you decide to run them through a bandsaw or something.

You dont have to be a gun expert to know what gun you would trust in a fight after youve fired a 45 and then a 9mm.

SOCOM. Let's see how much staff flunkies, under employed Colonels, coffee making E-8 have stuffed up SOCOM. My prediction, pistol will be chosen in over two years. Should be a month.

Great news! They never should have gone to 9mm.
 Some time in the future -- about 50 years from now -- someone at the Pentagon will make the U.S. military switch back to 9mm/.38 cal pistol. History doesn't progress -- it just turns in circles.

This is kind of misleading. The military isn't ditching the 9mm for the .45. Ruger was just given a contract by the U. S. Army Tank automotive and Armaments Command for their P95.

I carry a .45 and I think our troops should to.
