Re: 9mm v. 45 v. Rifle A Doctor's View of Gunshot Wounds
My take away was that unless the GSW from a handgun damages/disrupts the vital central nervous function, the loss of blood is primary factor that eventually incapacitates the BG. The more rounds of an acceptable caliber the better - all in a reasonable carry arrangement. Everybody has to choose what that means for themselves.

Re: 9mm v. 45 v. Rifle A Doctor's View of Gunshot Wounds
Thanks for the video. Raises questions for me about the FN 5.7 round and how it would stack up, since it has a much higher muzzle velocity than typical pistol rounds. I wonder if it would tumble & fragment, causing the same type of damage as the leg wound shown in the video (entry at knee, destroying the tibia)?
