Default Re: Weapons sizes

A lot comes down to shot placement. A .22 to the right spot is more effective than a .45 to an extremity.

I carried a .40 cal Glock on duty and a .380 Walther off duty.

The .40 cal had plenty of stopping power and ammo. The Walther had less of both but was easy to conceal. I figured that I am not going to get into an extended firefight off duty and that if I shoot a guy 7 times center mass with hollow points and he does not go down I should just give him my wallet an car keys and apologize.
