I was at Beretta armorers school between the two military tests for the 9mm contract competition. Beretta won the first, S&W cried foul and Beretta won the re-test. The 9mm was accepted to be more NATO compliant, carry more rounds per pound and to allow for success to the non-shooters in the military. I guess they have changed their mind.
Same government thinking that created the 10mm after the Miami bank robbery debacle. No plain clothes FBI's wanted to carry it, it was too heavy and hard to conceal. Hence, the birth of the 40S&W.
Now, where did the phrase FUBAR come from? Never mind.
