    i wish they would have told us what KIND of ammunition they were using. yes they said 9mm vs .40, but what about the grain, the amount of powder, the advertised fps and what the actual fps was using a chronograph etc. All that is more important when comparing the effectiveness of two different calibers.

      This isnt gerand thumb bro haha if he says “SEAL team” sidearm in conjunction with “sig sauer p226” on top of that “classic 9mm Parabellum round” you can assume they are referring to standard special forces Federal 9mm NATO which uses 124FMJ. You can easily go look up specs as it seems the show will assume ppl will go do that if they’d like. But keep in mind what you’re seeing on Gerand Thumb is SAMMI spec. NATO rounds for the military are akin to +P. When they have nato rated rounds I’m sure they’ll tell you. So federal 9mm NATO rated is 124 grain at 1260fps

      ​​@@CYMotorsportthe show did state the FPS was 1099, so that kind of rules out your 124 gn 9mm and is most likely 147 subsonic 9mm. 4.2 grains of CFE Pistol with a 147 grain projectile will give you that.

      @deguello66 5 месяцев назад

      @grayrecluse7496 this is true. 9mm pistols with suppressors are contradictory in their efficacy. Because 9mm breaks the sound barrier it simply is not silent. There are 9mm subsonic munitions that are the best idea under these circumstances. HOWEVER! That is why I specifically stated .45 ACP caliber. They, by design, are subsonic. Either in pistols or submachine guns they are very quiet. Sometimes the sound of the bullet striking someone is louder than the actual firing!

      Not all the time, I had a Colt Trooper Mk IV when I was at the police academy back in the 70's. I bought it new and had used it only to learn how. to operate and carry while on duty as a cop. On the range one day in training, the trigger broke and locked the revolver with the hammer back about half with 3 live .357 mag cartridges in the revolver, having fired 3 rounds. The range officer could not get the gun open to unload, it went to a gunsmith on standby who unloaded it. I sent it back to Colt with a rather nasty letter, they returned it to me before I graduated the Academy repaired and with the slickest trigger I ever had on a revolver. I did carry that gun for a few years before going to a M1911A1 for a carry gun. When I pulled the pin in '93 I had an Astra A100 in .45ACP in my duty rig having carried and qualified with the old gal many times, again I purchased her new and still have her in the original box in my closet, unloaded of course, next to my M1911A1 and Taurus DA .22LR Revolver

  • @SuperD00D
    @SuperD00D 5 месяцев назад +1

    Ah so many people even self proclaimed gun guys don’t know ish about handgun caliber ammo selection when it comes to power. And they just use whatever random ammo when testing them against each other and act like the results apply to every other 9mm/.45/.357 sig/.40 etc. when there are so many differences between each brand and type of bullet, even the same bullet can behave extremely different depending on barrel length.
    9mm is as powerful as .45 in standard pressure. .45 is only sometimes more powerful in +p than 9mm is in +p, but its still not a significant difference. Also, people think .357 sig is more powerful than .40, which is generally somewhat true, but I have an Underwood ammo for .40 that has more energy than ANY .357 sig round, even from Underwood themselves, who make the most powerful factory ammo for any caliber. So .40 is more powerful than .357 sig, period, when the most powerful factory ammo available between .40 and .357 sig is .40, even if it’s only one load, it’s an extremely effective load. It’s the 135 grain .40 jhp from Underwood.
    Even though .45 is not more powerful than 9mm, .45 +p makes a big difference where 9mm +p does not make a huge difference. There IS a noticeable difference, but no more than 100 foot pounds. .45 in +p can DOUBLE the energy, and put it into properly loaded .40 (Underwood) or .357 sig territory.
