Dear itsahoot,

I know of that pawn shop well, and also the loss of the VERY bearded One.

The .357 Magnum, as said by oldtimer Bill Jordan, thought that that revolver was a godsend.

Now, when i made the 9mm/1911 quote,Ii was NOT talking the average American citizen, although with the Luger P-08 coming on the scene, sort of dictated what the average European might use, if not a ‘mouse gun’ in 7.65 (PPK), or anything in ‘9mm short’ (.380).

I watched them melt an AR in full auto also a 9mm Clock.

Everything is subjective I guess, a 45 cal that I miss with 90% of the time is not really a better option than a 32 I hit with 90% of the time. 😄

Of course just the appearance of the bigger gun might deter most.
