First, I love your channel and I can agree with you to a point. I love a 9mm and carry, during the summer a Beretta Nano with a 6 round mag. I never carry a spare mag. In the winter I carry a Glock 27 in 40 S&W with an 8 round mag. Again no spare mag. I don鈥檛 plan on getting in a gun fight with a pistol. If you or anyone thinks a 9mm with a 17 round mag and you carry two extra mags gives you an edge, well your welcome to your opinion. Most times when you need to use a pistol to defend your self it is over in one or two rounds. Take most police incidents for example and I鈥檓 not knocking the police but they fire a full mag 15 - 17 rounds and get one or two hits on target. If you go up against someone with a rifle it better be be over in one or two rounds or your going to lose badly. I don鈥檛 care how good of a shot you are or how bad he is. That is just the way it is. The ballistics are basically the same between the 9, 40 and 45 ACP. Yes there are some differences but they are relatively the same. That is when it comes to shooting ballistic gelatin or milk jugs full of water and through a chronograph. A crusty old marine 1st Sargent I knew that always carried a 1911 in 45 ACP well after we went to to the 9mm (M9). He once told me, I can throw a baseball a hell of a lot faster than I can throw a brick, but would you rather I throw a baseball or a brick at you. That sunk in to my thick scull. If he could have gotten ammo for a 40 he would have deployed with one vice the 45 and definitely over the 9mm. Of course in the military we are taught a pistol is used to get you to a rifle so you can get back in the fight, so what do I know. lol.
