Bring back the M1911


iconKim du Toit provides yet another reason we should switch back to the .45 from the wussy 9mm Europellet. See slides 3 through 6.

While I'm glad the guy's alright, what does it say about the potency of the 9mm when a guy can get shot in the face at point blank range and suffer only a broken tooth.

9MM is fine, with JHPs. However, our troops have to use ball so they do need to up the caliber.

How did the ragheaded fuckpig manage to surrender? That asshole should have been a grease spot on the road about two nanoseconds after firing

I suspect it was a bad round (that is, powder that barely fired), rather than proving anything about the Europellet in general. Not that I like 9mm for anything but concealment, but they do have more penetrating power than this.

Mark,

This is not an isolated case. A year ago, I reported that the 9mm couldn't even kill an Xbox.

I'd have to go with a M1911A2...changes from the A1 would be an ambi safety with a slightly larger thumb pad, and a bit bigger sites with tritium inserts.
