I won't argue the fact that if your hillbilly inbred downs syndrome president decided that we had WMD's in Alberta to come get our oil, we wouldn't be able to put up a fight.

I can't remember how many guns threads have come up asking is this 9mm good what about this one? For christ's sake if you want a protection gun don't buy a 9mm, buy a 40S&W with a heavy load or larger otherwise you won't be doing much unless you headshot. If you think that you can headshot anyone under a stressful situation you need to educate yourself before you own any kind of gun.

Re: Taurus 9mm
i dont know why people say 9mm isnt enough stopping power. if i shoot you with a 9mm i GUARANTEE you your dropping to the ground.
9mm with hollow point +plus ammo and you have plenty to get youself out of any situation thats not going to have you ending up in jail. sure a 9mm might not be very strong at 25+ feet but if your shooting someone that far away youre going to jail anyways so who cares.

wanna sign a waiver and let me shoot you with some hollow plus ammo and see if you can stay standing? then i can say i shot someone AND prove my point. maybe shooting someone in the stomach might not drop them, but i can aim well enough to hit a more critical region.
