[QUOTE="Soulman, post: 1249053, member: 554"] Just because you're carrying a larger caliber doesn't mean you're going to miss as long as you practice. If you don't practice, you can miss just as easily with a 22 as you can a 45. Also, A 9mm is very easy to control in most any platform it is offered. The 9mm aslo does a lot more damage, and that means you have a wider margin for error. You've got to be a very good marksmans to be able to bring down a man size target with a 22 without them overtaking you and beating you to death. Ok and if the 22 doesn't fire (jams, bad box of ammo, etc)? Would you rather have it or a big rock or stick? Those guns weren't broken in. Any guy on here with one of the pocket pistols will tell you to shoot at least 500 rounds to make sure it is broken in and reliable. Once they are broken in properly, they are reliable. Hmmm, so you're saying .45acp doesn't leave a bigger hole, causing them to bleed out faster? You sir are wrong. Have you ever seen a gel test that shows the wound channel the larger calibers make? The more blood that you get on the ground in the fastest time possible, the better. The more damage the bullet does to the internals the better. However, I'm not saying everyone should carry a S&W 500. Carry the largest caliber that you can safely and reliably handle. [/QUOTE]
