The size and weight difference between a subcompact 9mm and a subcompact .380 is negligible. While a .380 is better than nothing, it's just not nearly as effective, especially if it's a big guy coming after you. Again, this opinion doesn't come from me - it comes from people far more informed and more experienced than me. I'm just passing it along. |

No disagreement with you here. Targets, jugs of water - none of those shoot back, either. My Wife has been shooting since she was a kid (just like me). If you attack her - which we have practiced - she will have no problem hitting the noggin. But I understand, the "average" person isn't that well rehearsed. Frankly, I'm not that big on the 9mm either. When I was in the Army, we transitioned rom the .45 to the 9mm while I was in Germany in the late 70s. I HATED those damned things, but that's the way it goes... After 25 or so years of shooting them, I got used to them and they were fine. But for me? In my retirement? I prefer a 1911 in a Galco hip or shoulder rig. But that's me... |

Unfortunately, I have. When I was in Viet Nam, I was an 11B (Infantry). I started out in the A Shau Valley with the 101st Airborne. Let's put it this way: There was a LOT of shooting. And, it's true. 90% of the time, you are just trying to keep the other guys head down....it's that other 10%......I'll let it go at that. |

Nope. I always take advice from anyone. Matter of fact, speaking of "targets" - this is the system I use regularly (well, every month or two) rather than going to the Bullet Hole or driving out to the country. Works damned well, too! https://www.itargetpro.com It IS one of the few "laser" system that I have tried that I really like. |

I carry a Ruger LC9 with a 9+1 extended mag.

That doesn't prove anything. 2 completely different places, different officers, different times (I've seen that second one, it's been around for a few years).

Yeah, same here.
One of the nice things about the CZ is it's double/single, so I can actually pull the trigger repeatedly when it's dry without racking the slide. Double action pull is obviously heavier than the single, but that's even better for practice. |
