      9mm Versus The 45ACP

      If you need 17 rounds in your magazine to survive a gunfight, you are hanging out in the wrong locations. The FBI stats I’ve found show that after 3 shots, your odds of hitting your target (if you haven’t already) drop like a stone.

      It’s far more important to hit your target with your first couple shots than it is to have an additional 10 in the magazine.
