Now I can knock down steel plates and pepperpots til the cows come home
I had the same "Moment of illumination", or deductive reasoning. After that
I kept only one 9mm handgun for sentimental reasons and because 9mm is a useful round if in a foreign country. I sold all others.
I promised myself that for self defense I would not use anything smaller than a .40 S&W caliber. If a 9mm can't barely knock down an iron target then I reasoned that for self defense, well.....Fugget about it!!!!!
