Only Boomers working on dated information disregard the 9mm as a defensive round. Bullet engineering has come a long ways in the last 30 years.

Boomers paid attention when bullet engineering progressed in all calibers as well.

We heard about the Boxer Rebellion before you did also, but not before John M Browning did. He did something about it.

He also said the 9mm Luger and the .38 special was fine weapons but his invention was better against bad guys on drugs.
Do you believe that a .308 Win kills deer deader than a 7mm-08?

That's a stupid question. Nobody mentioned "deader".

Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.
