Whereas rifle bullets are travelling so fast and carrying so much energy that they cause the flesh to go past its breaking point, causing disproportionate damage

It's like stretching a rubber band beyond its breaking point, vs cutting it

> A few more rounds
@Mauler "more than twice as many" is "a few more?"

Yes

LOL

In a single stack 1911

I'm thinking of when I stepped up from a P220 to a P226. Same size pistol, went from not-quite-flush 8 round mags to not-quite-flush 18 round mags.

A single stack 9mm 1911 holds 3 more rounds

I do like that my M&P holds 17... Its very nice

Yeah the sig p320 right now comes with a 17rd but they send you 2 21 rd mags after purchase

Nice.

I have 4 mags that I carry with my 1911. 2 7 rds and 2 8 rds. It always has one in the chamber so I have the 7 rd in it and the 8 rds in the holster. The other 7 rd is usually in my back pocket. Thats 31 rounds. If I cant stop my target with that, I deserve to die. Especially when I get consistent 4 to 5 inch groupings at 50 yards and can hit a poor little bunny rabbit in the head, right behind the eye, at the end of the driveway.

My only “Gun” I have...

Hot

@Ironman ooh you carry a 1911?

If you like 1911s I recommend the Para Ordnance p12 .45. It's double stack and holds 12 rounds. There are also p10s and p14s. My dad carries the Para Ordnance p12 and he loves it with no complaints. I've shot it as well and it's a very nice gun that is of the 1911 platform.

I'll get one once I'm old enough. I personally like the larger grips he has out on them since I have pretty big hands.

Nice

@HUNTER4639 I carry a 1911A1 Government. I can get the drum mags for it too but Im very happy with my capacity. My .40 needs the 14 round magazines. It scatters the shots everywhere. Wont even hit the paper target at 50 yards whereas my fist covers my shot groups from the 1911 at that distance. I also have a sub compact taurus G2C. Nice little pocket gun. Very happy with it too but it just doesnt have the longer range accuracy or the penetration of the .45. If it cant go through both sides of a 55 gallon drum, its not good enough. FMJs flatten out to pennies. My .45 on the other hand goes right through. I have these special soft brass jacketed bullets. They like to deform on impact but carry through whatever I shoot.

Ah. Very nice

@Plague Doctor Lawrence, that's a classic. Hold onto that.

Thanks! Found it at a thrift shop for about $11 I think.

I liked it because is looks kinda like a classic Buck Rodgers ray gun.

I also almost thought about carrying it around in a holster and calling myself “Ray-Gun Ryan”. LOL!

@Jupiter&Mars&moons you can post memes in any of our meme channels, we prefer it that way. we dont mind if it has something to do with an ongoing conversation, but i dont see the relevance with this. thanks!

Sorry again

no worries

Ment post tank meme lol

Anyone knowif you can shoot a real .22 LR out of a .22 bb/pellet gun... asking for a friend

I imagine no

@Suspected Kyle no lol. You'd need something to ignite the primer. I'm not even sure what a .22 bb gun uses to fire...

I've never shot a pellet gun so idk how it functions.

Perhaps

It has a firing pin but i doubt it puts off enough pressure to ignite a primer

Ohhh okay so it literally pumps gas to force the pellet out. Yeah I really know nothing about how much force or anything the firing pin has but I doubt it would.

Tbh i have a feeling it'll take the barrel with it
