I own many hand guns, but not one 9mm, I like .357 .40 .41 and .45 the most...the 9mm is popular because it can hold a lot of rounds, medium recoil, and has some stopping power, but its a light bullet traveling fast....which means less energy transfered to the target, but a bigger caliber like the .45, heavy bullet moving slow, a lot more energy is taken by the target, which equals more stopping power, of course, shot placement is everything, but if I had to stake my life on one caliber, it would be a .45 ACP or .45 Long Colt .41 and .40 would be minimum round for me...
