Yep, I carried my 38 snubby on my left side while I had the cast on my right arm, but as soon as I got it off, I went back to my P90.

Thumbs up

Calvin, thanks, that was a good read. I'm in the group that believes good proven man stopping 9mm will get the job done. Franne uses Double Tap Ammo 9mm+P 1244 grain JHP. Ballistics are excellent, 1295 FPS and 462 Ft. Lbs. from a 4" barrel. I however know the .45 is still the best and feel well armed with 10+1 of them bad boys. I use Speer Gold Dot 230 grain.

That was a very interesting and informative read Calvin. Thanks for posting it. I'm going to make copies and circulate it throughout my circle of shooting buddies.

I also love the .45 ACP cartridge, for exactly the reasons stated. Some have gotten back up, but that was due to poor shot placement, but most however do not get up to quickly.

I have several pistols in .45 ACP that I have been looking at.
