FRecon333 From my experience in the Marine Corps and firearms in general I can tell you that the worst 9mm is not as good as the worst .45 round. But the best type of 9mm is BETTER than the best .45 caliber round. I have shot the Beretta M9, Beretta 92fs, Colt 1911, and the USP .45 and more. I would take Beretta M9 with 15 rounds of 9mm 124 grain JHP over anything a Colt 1911 can offer ANY DAY. The ballistics are very similar, but with the M9 you just have more. Type ballistic comparison on google images. What?

 Also: Definition: Magifying glass: noun, spherical lens used to increase the perceived size of a small object to be better viewed. Example: "A magnifying glass is not needed to see that the .45 is bigger than the 9mm."

And, WTF at the dinosaurs.

I no longer respect FRecon333 as a Marine.

The dinosaurs were supposed to be a "what?" picture.
That's all.
Now that I think abot it, though, I can understand why no one would get that at first, making it seem kind of random and pointless.

SBBuckner I no longer respect FRecon333 as a Marine. You actually thought he was a real Marine? At first I thought it was plausible, but when he said 9mm was comparable to .45 and actually better because you get more rounds, I knew he was fail. He's either a dumbass, or one of those Marines that sit behind a desk. ... or does the USMC not have that sort of position? The Dinosaurs comic is definitely a 'wat' picture, I just think that my brain is too confused at the moment. ... NIPPLES!

I read a Swat guy say, in my book about zombie forensics, that a 9mm was the best handgun. People who shoot larger calibers are insecure in their accuracy as marksmen. stare

For a brief moment in history, the US government commissioned the production of a few Lugers in .45ACP to see if they would be suitable for use in our military. I don't have the article to confirm the date, but I believe it was sometime shortly after the First World War. A few of those .45 Lugers are still in private hands.
Pity the government didn't adopt the Luger. Things might have been different.
Just use the right tool for the right job and you'll be golden.

The first was used for the trials, it was so badly ******** after the trials they simply threw it away. The second is in private hands, and it's worth somewhere like half a mill. There's a company that's making repro .45 lugers. Dunno how much they are though.
