.45 ACP > 9mm, the reasons are clear
>larger diameter
>more ft-lbs at the muzzle
>more mass
>faster
The only problem is capacity, and double stack .45 ACP is nearly as full as 9mm
Why don't you stop using >lol9mm and pick up a real man's caliber?
>>29312401
Because the only .45 to even consider is .45 long colt
>>29312401
> faster
Nigger what?
>>29312469
Reloadingfag here, can confirm. If you have a strong actioned revolver, you can load 45 colt to over 44mag levels.
It's fucking great.
>>29312469
>.45 long colt
Is that like and extra long .45 Colt?
Shot placement > Caliber

It's cock long
>>29312401
>faster
Whhhhhhhhhhat?
>>29312553
It's like .45-70 but loaded with pistol powder at that point.
But, seriously. .45 colt = .45 Long colt. Don't be a silly goose
>>29312553
No It's just a misnomer. .45 LC is .45 Colt.
AR, AK, 9mm,.45ACP....niggers, Stop It.
Both, always BOTH!
>>29312782
But fuck 40
>>29312814
This
.40 was an answer to a problem nobody had
>faster
>>29312817
because pussy feds couldn't handle 10mm
>>29312401
>45. ACP

Allright /k/iddo, let me explain bow it really works:
>Shot placement is King
>Penetration is Queen
>And the rest is just Pins and Needles

>spending more money to have an objectively inferior defensive cartridge
http://concealednation.org/2014/10/fbi-decides-on-9mm-as-their-1-choice-and-have-tons-of-science-behind-their-decision/
And when something else with higher capacity/lower recoil/lower cost with the same or better penetration comes around, it'll be better than 9mm, too.
Fuck you for continuing a meme that could cost someone their life when they choose an inferior defensive chambering.
>>29313091
100 rd of .50 BMG missing you will do less than one .22lr hitting you
prove me wrong

hahahaha, bought and paid for by 9mm Industries for sure

If it's full auto it would be pretty hard Not to kill someone. Those rounds hit concrete or rocks, metals, anything hard, they explode into red hot shrapnel, on top of turning. Hard objects into shrapnel.

>Not 7.62x25
>Better ballistics
>Better penetration
>Flatter trajectory
>Low recoil, easy to control
>Privi makes JHP x25
>"Defensive" loads were pushed up to 2100fps or so in the past
I fucking hate the fact that I can't get one of those Chinese SiG clones in 7.62x25, but the syrups can. I'd CC that erry day, 17 rounds of x25 would fuck someone's day right up.
