-> Look at he shots fired in your average police shooting. It's almost
-> always 5 or 6 shots to stop the felon. Even the .38 did better..
->
-> DA*Again, please offer some evidence that the average police shooting
-> *always takes 5 or 6 shots to stop the felon.  Where did you get this
-> *bit of information?
-> The news...
And how did "the news" get that tidbit of information ?  You're not
quoting anything that I can verify.
-> Let me take a poll...
->
-> How many here have heard of a 9mm stoping a person in ONE shot...
I have.  Marshall & Sanow "claim" it happens a certain percentage of the
time, based on the type of bullet used.  They have a database of actual
shootings.  (Of course, the big question is how the evidence in their
database will correspond to a future situation that you or I may or may
not have in the future.)
-> Now the same for a .45
What people "HEAR" doesn't really count.  What counts is some EVIDENCE
that can be verified.  Do you really expect me to believe something just
cuz some dude name "JOHN DUKE" tells me he heard it on the news?
