DyeF9,
Your submission of "expert's theory", when compared to ACTUAL combat experience of REAL soldiers in "close combat", in a single/singularly appropriate word is: ABSURD.
yours, satx
Yeah, I'm sure "my" theory supported by very recent FBI data is absurd. The fact that a pistol round is anemic in the first place makes your argument irrelevant. 150 ft lbs of energy is nothing. The speeds of the rounds don't make significant permanent wound cavities. It's a backup weapon in almost all cases of actual combat. Even older reports support this.
