You believe what they show you in the movies ? How old are you? 12?
Actually the guy who you insulted (not me) is correct. You can live with the lower half of your body blown off. There are many true war stories of officers getting everything below the waist blown off, and not even noticing, urging their men to charge and crawling towards the enemy.
People have been hit with RPGs, Bushmaster cannons, .50 BMGs and lived...
People have jumped on grenades and been blown up and lived...
Nothing guarantees a stop, especially not a puny pistol caliber like .45 or 9mm.
And P95Carry you did apparently miss the logic. From his post:
and I have to use my 380 to stop that threat, the 3 rounds I can put center mass in about 1 second, should at the very least make him take notice.....
As for the tests of the bullet not penetrating animal skulls, again, if your hit in the face with a 380 4 or 5 times, something tells me your gonna want to stop playing now and call times out---lol.
That is his rationale that the .380 is plenty for self defense, and a pellet gun would do all of the above by his logic. Not to mention what someone said before, the odds of him hitting someone in the face 4-5 times out of a 7 shot mag, and this after shooting the guy 3 times in the chest, seem very low.
