May I point out to everyone one important fact?
When it comes to standard military ammo, the 45acp beats the hell out of a 9mm any time. However, this is the problem.
The 9mm with standard 115 gr +p hollowpoint ammunition is quite a sufficient manstopper. I carry the Cor Bon version in my Glock 26.
As long as our troops are saddled with FMJ military ball ammunition, the M-9 will continue to be an insufficient manstopper.
Attack the ammo, not the gun.
Until then, get a new bullet, or go back to a proven manstopper, the 230 Gr ball 45 auto round.

The 9mm round is very popular with Eurofags. What we have to understand is the basic difference in the role of handguns for Americans. Americans consider the handgun a defensive tool against armed adversaries. The Europeans have traditionally used handguns to execute unarmed prisoners and civilians. For them a .22 would work.
