To paraphrase a famous saying, reality confronts us with men and women of all shapes and sizes, but this animation demonstrates how simply a handbag-sized Glock pistol provides a powerful means of making them all equal. [Hat tip Diana at Noodle Food]
In case you missed the point . . .
As Robert Heinlein used to say, “an armed society is a polite society.”
We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
The 9mm works just fine if you don't use ball ammo.
ReplyDeleteBut Glock make a nice .45 auto too!
Never could understand why the military have to fight with one hand tied behind their backs all the time...
Prefer the Ruger P94 (40 caliber) personally, but the Walther PPK has it beat for sheer style.
ReplyDeleteWhat about a nice revolver instead?

Nothing wrong with a good revolver- I own a bunch of them!
ReplyDeleteOne I like is this rarity called "Mamms little helper." It's a custom with a very special feature. It goes bang seven times. Not as unweildy as might be expected.

ReplyDeleteI don't know that much about the 9mm. What's wrong with the ball ammo?

It has been said, "Walk quietly and carry a big gun "
ReplyDeleteMy weapon of self-defence is a baseball bat.
ReplyDeleteExpanding ammo tends to do the job better.
ReplyDeleteWord from where they are doing the shooting is that the 9mm isn't knocking the bad guys down quick enough.
Frangible works better. Ask hopalong Burton!
But aginst someone returning fire, dead a bit later isn't good enough!
Oswald,
ReplyDeleteAccording to international military convention all combat weapons must use fully cased rounds, although I doubt the insurgents read the convention.
Apparently all is not fair (in war at least)
