Smaller Calibers

[gregarat]

Im on the side of carry the largest gun you can handle .

I could shoot a box of .44 rounds and have it not hurt me. That doesn’t mean I can control it in a defective situation. Honestly, most handgun cartridges are poor man stoppers.
I agree that shot placement is the most important factor, but why handicap yourself with a marginal cartridge when it isn’t needed? I would at least try something larger, you may be pleasantly supprissed! I prefer the push of a .45 over the the snap of a .40.


Dont get me wrong. If I was in a bad way, and all I had avalible is a .22. It would be used. Cause anything is better than nothing at all ! I would still prefer a FAL, or a M14.... At work Im limited to a 9mm, and I dont feel undergunned, but off duty I carry a .45 and a .38 as a BUG.
