.40's not that much better, get some premium JHP's for the 9mm and call it a day. -- It's not about the caliber if you can make it count when the sh*t hits the fan.

I have a 10mm that I love. To the jury it looks like overkill. "Hey isn't that the gun that was too powerful for the FBI to handle." It's a good way to get sent to prison for life.

One of the best guns in the world to start with. And a good defence weapon. I can't carry a gun unless I feel it's a true stopper. Convidence in your tools at the critical moment is paramont.

Like mentioned you want to be comfortable with what you are carrying, yet there's something to be said about not carrying something that if you ever have to use it, lands you in jail based on a jury thinks you had Dirty Harry .357 Magnum complex therefore were out looking to use it.
This is why I have a 9, it's plenty of protection for me. A smaller gun like a .22 will give most people enough of a sting to realize you have plenty more shots, a .38 or 9mm had enough punch to ensure the guy thinks twice before wanting to say "may I have another" and well.. a .40/10mm are close to the line where the jury begins to look at you funny.
No matter though, it's a huge responsibility pointing a gun at a person, one I'm hoping to never need to do.
I am looking around for a different shotgun though. Want something I can go hunting with that won't try and beat me down in the process.

GPFs Sexy Ginger.
Reminds me of JROTC. Loved drills with an m1 rifle.
i have to pick up something for myself. It's on my list of **** that has to get done but never does.
although once I get called in to basic training for corrections I will be using an AR-15 and I believe a 40. I don't know how much time they give you to shoot. Hopefully I can go in and hit the range on a regular basis. If not ill have to buy my own
