9 mm
I live in Watertown where last year the fire fight between the local LEO and the Boston Bomber took place. Most departments carry Glock 40's in the Peoples Republic. Yes we all know that the 45 is the best man stopper ever. Ask John Browning and millions of GI's that butt it saved. Is a 9mm the best, no. Will it work, yes it will and well. Like posted if you use a good hollow point bullet and with good shot placement your good. Back to the firefight. During the battle and it was a battle, there was approximately 300 rounds fired. Only one bullet found its mark and it was friendly fire. The police officer almost died but survived and is thriving thankfully. My point is you have to hit your target. Not sure if any of you have been shot at. Its shall we say stressful and all logic and composure goes out the window. Out of 300 rounds fired not one found its target and they were close.
After this the role is reversing. A few of the departments are going to the 45. However a number are going back to the 9. With marksmanship taking a back seat to number of rounds available departments must be siding with the FBI.
