I have always preferred 9 mm but was taught a lesson during the two recent ammo hoarding/shortages under Odumba to diversify. Fortunately I had lots of pellet guns to use then. Recently I have sold off several handguns, and am now building back up with all 9 mm. But there is this nagging feeling to get an oddball on the side just in case we cannot get ammo so easily. I really don't want a .40 or another .45 ACP, but if I can get one super cheap, might be a good idea to have in limited reserve as something to shoot in a bad situation. Even thinking of a .32 ACP or even a .25 ACP. But in those dark days I even had problems getting ammo for my 9 MM Bulgarian Makarov pistol, so no guarantees. Been regretting selling my Glock 21 in .45 ACP today, but hated the expensive and heavy .45 and the trigger on that Gen. 4 was awful, but still it went bang and was not a 9!

In essence, maybe it is not such a good idea to have so many pistols in one caliber that can easily be hoarded in panic buying?
