Will the 9mm ever fall into obscurity?
http://m.military.com/daily-news/2014/07/03/army-wants-a-harder-hitting-pistol.html
I love 9mm. I think it is more than adequate for SD especially in +p or +p+ which is what I EDC/keep in my night I stand gun. Because I love it I would hate to see it fade and I am wondering what will happen if the Army adopts a new pistol caliber through this MHS program they have announced. Part of the reason why firearms calibers become so ubiquitous in the civilian market is because of their usage in the military/police arena. Do you think they will move to a .45 or .40sw or even a .357 Sig? And if they do what does that mean for the 9mm? Will it fade or will it still be the most popular handgun caliber around? What're your thoughts?
