    You've survived the zombie apocalypse. There is (1) Zombie left and he is 700 lbs. He's breaking through your front door. You have a 1911 in .45 ACP and a G19 in 9mm. You are down to (1) round each. Both are chambered and you shoot each equally well. Which one will be in your hand ? :D

    Both. One in each. :draw:

    This was the first thing I thought of when I read that :D

    It looks like you were trying to embed the full screen view. Under the vids there should be a button that says "share" next to the like/dislike buttons. Click on share, right click on the URL that shows up, Click copy, Open Post, Right click, Select Paste, and there you go. Hope this helps. :yesway:

    1 zombie left? I go out the back door and find a shotgun at least. :dunno:

    Both will do the job if the shooter does his, quality ammo is used, and there is no intermediate barriers. If you need to shoot through a car door, for example, the .45 retains more weight and velocity. Its up to you how much you are concerned about that for a carry gun.

    I no longer own any 9mm, but I wouldn't feel underarmed with one.

    i like the middle...40cal. Not to big and not to small but i also own 3 .45 and i don't have any complaints about it. Ive owned a 9mm before and didn't have any complaints about that i think it really boils down to personal preffernce.....

    If seen this type of thread on every forum. Either side has some retarded explaination.

    1. Shoot what you have.
    2. Shoot what you have alot.


    Follow those two rules instead of fingering you computer; and the rest does not matter.
    End of discussion.

    scsbronco, that's what I always say...

    shoot what you carry and carry what you shoot...

    awareness, confidence, consistancy, and accuracy wins

    So the video guy has to put 3 rounds of 9mm into a guy when he could of just shot him once an killed him with 1 rd. of .45.....hmmmm. That should explain why the .45 is sooooooooo much better.

    The video is one persons opinion. Any caliber can kill someone. Myself? I am taking the biggest cartridge/caliber I can handle.
