Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns REMEMBERING THE INSIGNIFICANT

Lets take a minute to remember the ones who are passing into the past in a passing way. The 41 Magnum, 357 Magnum, 38 Special, 45 Colt 10MM, 40 S&W and the 45 Auto. Lets give accolades of praise to the new unseatable KING of all, the 9MM.
As we go into a new journey realizing that 9MM has and is and will be the undisputed G.O.A.T..
NO OTHER cartridge before, now and in the future will be as coherently coherent and unsurplantable as the 9MM.

Thanks be unto the 9MM.

the 9mm is fine in smaller handguns like the Sig P365, or now the new Hellcat which I want to try, however in larger handguns the 9mm cartridge seems small in proportion to the pistol.

To personify the inanimate - will only cause the enlightened to damn it.

GDF,

Here are the handgun cartridges I currently have handguns chambered for and shoot when I can:

22 lr
22 mag
32 S&W
32 H&R Mag
32 auto
327 Federal
.380
38 Spcl
357 Mag
9 X 19 mm
40 S&W
10 mm
44 Spcll
44 Rem Mag
45 ACP
45 Colt



Edited to add my Sig .380.


It would have been a longer list but I got rid of my 9X 18 Makarov.

I shoot, they shoot, we shoot, other than the 9MM at times but are wishing all shot were 9MM's. When we waste our time not shooting a 9MM we are in a wasteful wasting of our time. May we all come to the realization that the Illuminated Illuminati has of the illuminating 9MM. The brilliance that illuminates from it causes one to turn their head so as not to be blinded by it Luminosity. Carry on for ever and ever and evermore.

Now that you mention it doofus,, I probably will remember you.

The 9mm will never hold a candle to the .45 simply because the 9mm is European based and the .45 is American based. Greatest country ever and the greatest caliber ever. If you think otherwise, you’re a doofus

many is the times when that trusty 9mililiter saved the bacon! My new c9 yeets canon goes wear I goes. too days ago shooting it at 100 yards we saw goups that nearly where close to 2 inch for 30 shots,trust me! . It has also got the best of a sqiurel that come at me out back cause it seed me as a danger so it come at me. Yeet Cannon gives more spin on the bollit and this will increase damege, this sqiurel stood not a chance, it was blowed to litle pieces with but one shot. If mony was no object I would go to africa to shot a bufalo with this yeet canon, nither bears, lions or any big things could take a hit. Then just drawin it out makes the badies think about there next moves are. Ur right in that those other shells are obsilete, if 9m is fired in the yeet canon. I wager theres a many on here who would like to stroke a yeet canon with there hands! I wager once stroked theys headed to the stores to get thems a 9mm yeet canon, so they could stroke it all the more. talkin about the yeet canon gets folks to relize that this internt stuff can be mostly crapola, most but ones or twos and maybe three or 4 here kinda talks out of the ass-hole or bees repetin stuf they red some other place. a feller has gots to think how many really shoots or just says they shoots, even if once per monthe.

"European based" carries a well earned connotation of weakness and ineptitude.

More specifically, the 9mm is a German engineering marvel, brought to us around the same era as the Mauser action. What a time in the history of firearms.

It arrived on scene before the 45ACP, and has remained in common service use far longer.


For the record, I'm also a great fan of the 45ACP.

It is a great cartridge for Europeans and “frail” women! memtb

Yeah....I suppose it has enough stopping power for those type of threats....grin

Never owned on and probably never will.

I guess my post could easily be interpreted two different ways.....and both accurate! memtb
