[QUOTE="RickN, post: 3682535, member: 8854"] When NATO was deciding on a standard pistol round many European countries wanted the 380, the USA wanted the 45 and they compromised on the 9mm in use with some NATO countries already. It was easy to shoot so easier to train city kids who had never fired a gun before. Same reason the USA adopted the 5.56. Light, easy to shoot and did not scare the city kids. [/QUOTE]
