Tupac Shakur survived being shot with a 9mm five times. If you want real stopping power the smallest caliber I suggest is .40 S&W.

“Tupac Shakur survived being shot with a 9mm five times.”

I doubt the shooter spent much time at the range.

9mm can kill. Heck, a .22 can kill.

I have a .45 for CCW with a capacity of 7 and a 9mm with a capacity of 14. In a horrible situation, you may need those extra shots.

That was through a car and probably slowed down a ton. Hollow points can add some extra damage, of course for home defense nothing beats a short barreled 12 gauge shotgun with 000 buckshot.

Yep! I like my .40 SW, but I like my 8 shot .357 revolver better.

Whoever shot him five times was either a poor shot or not trying to kill him.

Tupac? Don’t you mean 50 Cent?

Yeah, he survived, but his FOOT was a mess. ;)
