The argument that was presented is that kinetic energy is the primary deciding factor in regards to a round's leathality and if that's the case, the 9mm can be just as lethal as the 45 ACP. It was in response to the hype surrounding the 6.6 CM.
But you said: "'If kinetic energy is the only deciding factor, then there's no way a 45 ACP can be more lethal that a 9mm Luger"I'm merely pointing out that a 9mm can be just as lethal as a 45 ACP.
But you said:
Well a well placed 22 short can kill you just as dead as a 45 ACP. But in general the more kinetic energy absorbed by the target the more lethal the round. And a .45 ACP produces more ft.lbs. of Kinetic energy than a 9 mm does in General.
At normal handgun range a .45 ACP has no difficulty penetrating the human body. As demonstrated by ballistic gelatin.normal calculations of energy suggest that the 115 FMJ going around 1175 FPS has more energy than the 230 FMJ going around 850. there is no doubt-based on what I have read including the famous Hatcher studies, and those of Evan Marshall and others later on-that when limited to FMJ, a 45ACP is a slightly better one shot stopper than a 9mm. With modern expanding ammo-its inconclusive. I also believe that with FMJ, the lethality is up on the air-usually, the deeper the puncture the more likely death is going to happen and a 9mm FMJ usually has better penetration

You must have been watching a MSNBC report on why "assault weapons" need to be banned!
No, just as I know the difference between Plastic Poop and S***, I know the difference between an "assault weapon" and something that looks like an "assault weapon".
Hell, I can even tell the difference between Mr. Trump and a "President".
You had me until you said that then you blew all your credibility.No, just as I know the difference between Plastic Poop and S***, I know the difference between an "assault weapon" and something that looks like an "assault weapon".

I think I have demonstrated that in general .45 ACP is a superior round than a 9mm and has more killing power.
So I'll restate for clarity too. You were wrong. And now you are trying to move the goal posts.And, I restated for clarity.

I'm just busting your B**** a little. :lol: I actual don't know a lot about guns other than their safe use. I do own several hand guns and a few rifles and some black powder stuff but I don't shoot as often as I would like too. I like your avatar pic.I'm not moving anything. I mispoke and you're taking advantage of it. You're a Conservative. You're better than that.
really-so Hillary would have looked like a real president to you.
Its amazing how Trump occupies so many minds around here. He has nothing to do with this discussion and yet you cannot help but to bring him up.

I didn't say I didn't know more than youWell colour me SURPRISED!
Thank you for keeping your string of not actually answering the questions which you were asked intact.
Would you like to double down by saying something like "I already answered that question."?
Did you know that "neither" is not an answer to "which is better"?
Thank you for keeping your record of not actually answering questions intact.
Would you like to try again?
Read the article. Facts are facts and you said the 6.5 Creedmore is too light.
