sleeping with a gun makes me 'safe', but wearing a bullet proof vest around makes me 'paranoid'. So i've since sold my vest for crack and hooker money :6

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.

you're just jealous that you dont have the opportunity to kill dune coons like we do, just admit it :P

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.

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.

said by the guy who has never shot someone before. i had the lovely opporunity of serving in the army infantry. unfolrtunately, i got deployed to afghanistan. i have a 7 inch scar on my stomach from where haji sliced me with a knife after i shot him 3 times, center mass, with my m9. there isn't enough hydrostatic shock in a 9mm to take some people down.

heavy load .40>9mm any day.

At war I'd want somethng bigger than a 9mm, but for all around use I feel my 9mm loaded with 18 hollowpoints is sufficient in protecting me. I'll have a mini 14 soon, unless someone can convince me otherwise.

not saying a 9 is better then a .40, if you can fire .40 ammo out of a 9mm frame then youre better off.

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.
