Since the gun people have gone fucking ape shit and jacked ammo prices out of the roof. 9 is fun for target practice without spending a grand on ammo each time if you want to shoot a lot. If you can even find fucking ammo nowadays.

[looks in safe] Yep..I can find it! PLENTY of it! I buy a little every month where I find the best deals. I stopped buying any from nov 08-sept 09 because of the "Obama price hike" but it's gotten back to normal (here anyway) so I nab a few boxes when there are deals.

Everything auto I have is 9mm (cept the .22 targets) simply for ease. My 3 carry pieces were made in .380 or 9mm and nothing larger so I chose 9mm...and my match pistol is 9mm. I have a couple of 38's and some .22 revolvers, but those are not primary...just guns from the past handed down

I've owned .45's and LOVED my glock 30 but just think it's easier to stockpile one round of handgun and one round of rifle for the eminent Zombie attack; where I'll load up and head to Georgia and defend Lee's WEST exposure.

I’ve read the expansion cap. Of .45 and seen loads and loads of tests, but (for me) what it boils down too, is PLACEMENT is the only thing that matters in the end. And if that’s the case…give me 19 rounds of 9mm instead of 8 rounds on .45 ANYDAY. Because when it MATTERS….you won’t BE at a range with perfect conditions…you’ll be scrambling for your life, and 8 well placed shots MAY not be possible…but cracking off 5-6 rounds to get to safety may be likely.

I like both of these quotes. Especially the last one.
