<<Colt .45>>

I treasure my dad's WWII .45 but find it difficult to fire rapidly with any accuracy. The 9mm/.38 has less recoil and more accuracy for the "average" shooter/home defender. Therefore would think it is a "safer" choice for most non-marine users<grin>.

When teaching my now ex-wife to use a 6" S&W .38 I told her if she needed to defend her self in the home to pull the trigger until the gun goes "click". As I was worried the guy might get up and take the gun away from her. Guess that makes your point. However, if you can't hit the target with the .45 what good is the damn thing?

I prefer a flame thrower myself....much more impact on the enemy.............

In regards to naval support fire...let's not get personal now!<grin>
