...The 45ACP rules! It's awsome! 9mm, 40, and 10mm all suck!

Questor, c'mon man, you really need to be 'up front' about this (LOL). Mikey.

I'm just trying to be objective about it.

DITTO for me!

.45 ACP = The best, all-around pistol cartridge ever made.

Here are two of my .45 pets:

I just HATE it when people beat around the bush about their favorite guns!!

Well--been thinking bout this and I need a clarification, just too make sure I am not reading anything into your comments that you don't mean.
Your saying you like the .45--- Right ? You are saying you think the others are worthless--Right ?

I also like the .45acp, but what's wrong with the 10mm? :?

Dusty Miller · « **Reply #8 on:** December 30, 2004, 10:06:48 AM »

MJB, you should go back and read Questor's original post, all the information you need is right there!!

Not a darn thing wrong with the 10mm except it's a little hard to get into a decent pistol to shoot it with. *smiles*

Questor, help me understand your post. Do you like the .45?

:wink:

The 45 ACP is a great cal. The way I look at it is, having a bunch of different calibers allows me to justify to my wife having a bunch of different guns!!!! :grin:

Firearms (calibers) don't suck, some are better than others, up to you to decide!!!

I thought once about buying a 9mm 1911 for a fun gun but decided against it. It would be like buying a 4 cylinder Cadillac! 44 Man

I agree, the .45 acp is the best round made...other than the .357 magnum, which is the most versatile round made, ...other than the .44 magnum, which is the best hunting round made,...other than the .22 rimfire, which is the best all-around round made,...other than the .38 special, ...which is the best target round made,...other than the .45 acp, ...which is the best paper punching round made,...other than the cheaper, lower recoiling 9mm...., lots of good rounds out there depending on what you want to do with them.

Okay, let's be dogmatic (that's a pistol carried by a police dog.)

There are four useful pistol cartridges -- you can get rid of all the rest.

1. The .22 Long Rifle. Everyone needs a .22 pistol. If you don't have a pistol, and want to get one, get a .22 first.

2. The.357 Magnum. When you include the ability to shoot anything from full charge loads to powderpuff .38 Specials, it has unmatched versatility.

3. The .45 ACP -- the combination of this great cartridge and the great pistol designed for it is unbeatable for defense and combat.

4. The .45 Colt -- for the big stuff. Some heretics might like the .44 Magnum, but a Ruger Blackhawk with a heavy .45 bullet and a case full of Li'l Gun is hard to beat.

Vern, its patently obvious that you just DON'T GET IT! Go back and read Questor's orginal post! :twisted:

Of course I get it -- but where he trashes the 9mm, .40 and 10mm, I trash them ALL -- except for the .22, .357, .45 ACP and .45 Colt. That covers the spectrum. All other handgun cartridges suck! :-D

Quest
I agree, just as long as that includes the 45 super.

Vern Humphrey · « **Reply #19 on:** February 01, 2005, 12:56:06 PM »

Put a 28-lb Wolff recoil spring (and the matching firing pin return spring) in your M1911 and you have a .45 Super -- for less than $10.

Tom H. · « **Reply #20 on:** February 01, 2005, 04:40:22 PM »

Hey Vern,
You forgot the brass.

I can load the super for less than I can buy ACP rounds :wink:

Forty-fives rule, other calibers drool.
