Re: Why one cop carries 145 rounds of ammo on the job
If you can only handle a BB gun, guess you better use it or stand in the corner and shake until help comes along?
Never meet a gun or a woman I couldn't handle!

Re: Why one cop carries 145 rounds of ammo on the job
I have first hand experience in what a 9mm can and cannot do. I know what a 45 acp will always do.
There is a reason why the FBI asked Smith and Wesson for a upgrade to the 9mm.....
Carry what you like, carry what you will, carry what you want, but I will always carry and that carry will be a 45 acp.
40sw, 45acp, or 357 is what I like but the real question is what can you get up and on target when it counts.
My life event is what pushed me in the 45ACP decision and it has yet to let me down.

Re: Why one cop carries 145 rounds of ammo on the job
Wow, what a life changing event.
To each his own but there is no way I would give up a .45 for a 9mm. If you read this story, the .45 acp did exactly what was expected. Most of what I see came down to the last three rounds placed on target. .. placement.
All of the other rounds were out of desperation. No way a 9mm would have been that effective Going through a windshield. I carry a 45 acp as my edc and would carry more rounds of it if needed before going to a smaller round. I also carry a AR 15 in the trunk. Glad the officer came out alive but the 45 did indeed do it's job. Ammo did not save him, shot placement is key all day everyday.
