The military had the same dilemma. More people can shoot a 9mm accurately, but it really doesn't have the power for a one shot kill. The .45 acp has the power but too many people that have to use a pistol cannot shoot the .45 because of recoil. I maintain that the people that can't shoot a .45 have never had adequate instruction and practice with the pistol. They may also be so recoil conscious that they will never be able to shoot a pistol of power (recoil).
