He must be crazy to be spending all that cash on 9mm. One shred of sanity is the Benelli - hope for the man yet.

Better to keep all of your handguns in one caliber. You’re less likely to get the ammo between weapons mixed up that way.

9mm is good. It’ll be easier to get than .40 or .45 if worse comes to worse.

Why do you assume he spent “all that cash on 9mm”?

The explosive sales of Beretta 92FS is a result of his use of one in “Lethal Weapon”. Beretta may have gifted him one.

Gibson is worth over $500 million, which not only means he can afford to buy whatever he likes, but that he doesn’t likely have a small dick problem requiring a bigger calibar pistol.

IIRC, Martin Riggs' preferred weapon was a Beretta 92 or 99. so that might explain why Gibson has one... The only thing I can't get over is why he's got (or had) handguns, given just how incredibly anti-gun the Lethal Weapon movies were. Then again, he was just an actor in the movies.

In a sane world, what he bought would not be grist for conversation. However we do not live in a sane world, we live in a world that is infested with liberals.

At the end of the day when you are faced with someone wishing to do you harm, does it matter one whit if you have a Baretta , Glock or Sat night special.
If it throws a projectile at the bad guy, and you walk away whether it cost 10.00 dollars or 1000.00 dollars you are alive and the bad guy is dead or out of commission

Most people do not have the ability to spend large cash on weapons, he does. But again at the end of the day a 92SF has a magazine that holds 15, maybe not in Calif, but it surely holds more than one.
