He never mentions the ability to place a shot accurately under pressure. Very telling. Notable that he advocates a six shot 380, but not a 45 of any kind. Just wow.

A few years ago, I happened to have both a 9mm loaded with 124 gr Gold Dots and a 1911 loaded with 200 gr XTP's, while picking up some pigs I shot.

Decided to run an informal test. Pulled the 9mm and shot a dead pig in the head from about 5 - 6 feet. The bullet ricocheted off of the skull. Pulled the 1911 in 45 and tried the same shot from the same distance. The 45/200 XTP produced a hole a bit bigger than a golf ball, penetrating well into the brain cavity.

That was enough to settle the question to my mind.
