EDC choices Does it say anything about you?

Or lack of brain cells

Why not both?

I drive a Pinto and carry grenades.

Response #1: Isn't that called a New Jersey High-Ball?

Response #2: 1976 called... they said, "Keep on truckin!"

Also if I have to add purple to any of my posts to keep someone’s knickers untwisted I will be very disappointed in ingo

Dude. Gingers, the real life vampires? Red headed people with pasty white skin that cannot tan? Have you never heard of South Park? Wait you were probably too busy rolling obnoxiously coal with your “straight pip” diesel to catch the reference

No seriously I had no idea, South Park would have not have been on my watch list. To be honest till about a month ago i rarely watched anything that would be called entertainment.

So you’re compensating but afraid to admit it?

Maybe, but a have an old military truck with a tow bar. 1/2 ton won’t cut it

24 yr. old GMC truck & the biggest gun that I can conceal .... in the winter, that's often a 4" S&W 500 Magnum . Yes, I have a big deck !

Really that's how you took that?
Since you're new here, let me explain it to you. Most of us are pretty well versed on how projectiles have evolved. But, regardless of the data, some of us just enjoy shooting a larger caliber because we can. So smaller caliber technology has finally caught up to the long proven ballistics of the .45 acp. Those smaller calibers aren't any more effective without good shot placement.
Run along now troll and bother someone else with that nonsense. Clearly nobody else posting in the thread is taking any of it seriously

You're right, they aren't any more effective without good shot placement. With any pistol cartridge you need to place on vitals. 9mm just let's us do it faster and in higher quantity.

I never seen good ole Elmer hit that wabbit so I would think you may benefit from such

all in good fun

I think most of us on this board are old enough to remember that if you drive a Pinto, you are automatically carrying a grenade.

 

[ditcherman]

Carry and drive full size, although many acquaintances laughed at my Tundra and it’s 5’ bed, calling it a Honda Ridgeline (the worst of insults!) You could never lift a ridgeline this high and run these tires though, so there.

And I have to admit, I like my guns a little middle class fancy, a p320 AXG or p226 Legion.

Switching gears a bit, this was first thing in my my mind when I read the thread title…

We know, we know! We’ve seen pictures, although I’m not sure that wasn’t some kind of magnifying lens you used for your deck pics.

When I started dating the wife, she had a Pinto... it's a wonder we survived.

I don't think 9mm lets a person get back on target so much faster as to make a real difference. But I've also never done any timed comparison and have no interest in doing so.
Don't worry about me, I'm confident I can put hits on target with whatever caliber I choose to carry. Otherwise I wouldn't carry it

I still think you're a troll

Why? Was she getting rear ended a lot?
Don't answer that, glad y'all survived

Dodge and Beretta for me.

THIS^^^

Projectiles shed velocity on the way to the target, but not mass and cross-sectional area. Ask yourself why 9mm has to try so hard to deliver enough performance just to come close to 40, 45 or 38SA. If you believe in the 'more rounds' rationale, shouldn't you be jumping to 30 carry or 5.7 x 28?

M&P9c, drive. 16 Journey, had an F150, when I started carrying the 9c

I guess I like big, heavy stuff. LOL
