Terrible comparison, a hysterical argument.
Well I disagree, I feel it's a very valid argument. First you blindside 38, by making the comparison with
the most disadvantageous bullet weight possible, then you run with the supposition that clearly infers
38 is a less than capable caliber.
I don't really have a dog in this hunt. I have more 9mm pistols than any other type gun. But I've also
done my own crude backyard ballistics comparisons. Have you? Simply put, 9mm is not 38 Special or .357.
9mm is an extremely efficient cartridge. Georg Luger certainly hit upon a cartridge of the future, when
he designed it. But, IMO, it's simply not an objective comparison.
