Seriously , I get the thinking that a 9 gives a larger capacity magazine and extra shells are easy to carry more of.
Just how does the stopping power of a 9mm stack up against the 38 Special?
I price on videos that The Cops shoot 3 to7 shots to down a bad guy(with 2 cops usually more shots!)
In the past,an Officer was taught to Double oratriple Tap with the .8 Special
The bad guys seemed to go down easier inn the .38 Special era...
The .38 Specfires a much heavier slug than a 9mm; Maybe THAT'S it???
I shoot revolvers in both .38 Spec and .357 Mag I couldn't afford to re-arm in what might be an inferior caliber.
Will someone please speak the truth about this caliber contriversity?
Thanks
