-> When in doubt, check with someone who's been there. That ends the

Ahem.  I had an interesting discussion with a neighbor of mine a few
years ago.  An elderly Finnish-American gentleman, he fought the
Russians during the Winter War in 39 and again alongside the Germans
till 45.
He carried a 9mm Luger throughout the war and thought it was just great.
He also thought my Isocoles stance was silly - one handed shooting, ala
a target stance was the way to go, according to him.
No doubt about it, ol man Skoggs had "been and done".  But I didn't rush
out and buy a Luger and give up my Isocoles stance.
-> Sarge says: a person should familiarize themself with the most
-> effective weapons they are comfortable/proficient with.  If that's a
-> 9mm, .38 wheel gun, or whatever, it will be the best for that
-> individual.
Amen!
Regards
John
