Carry what you want. If you carry a round that has minimal "stopping
power", with luck, he might let you shoot him until he actually does go
down.
If not..he might simply kill you.

Something to consider when carrying a firearm in the Real World

My 9mm typically has either the 124gr JHP Golden Sabers, or 124gr FMJ
Rangers. I also don't aim for CoM.

Mine has Remington UMC 115gr JHP, 'cuz they were cheap for practice. I
should buy some real ammo some time, huh?

I guess that in the extra 0.4 secs it takes to put 2 more 9mm rounds
in a bad guy, he won't be doing too much to stop us...IF we get off
the first shot, or make our first shot count.

So, you make headshots, just in case they're wearing armor?
Good show, Pete.

One thing with a head shot, usually ONE is enough to stop the perp...

Now if your carry piece is a .454 Casull or a .500 S&W or other hand
cannon, Well lets just say a head shot is REALLY messy.... COM may be a
bit better for the ME to clean up.


Then use a M72. ;-)
