Another reason to fly GA...

Yep,
The old .45, we seemed to always have the most rattlin' pistols available.
Loose barrels and all, but was sad to see them start going bye bye in the
80's. And now I carry a 9mm, would not dream of carrying the .45 anymore. I
like the .45 stopping power, but I am much more accurate with the 9mm. Can't
say that is the way it is for everyone but it sure makes a difference in my
grouping!
But hey maybe we may be onto something there? Maybe some of those
officers need to caliber down? Maybe they could also get a better grouping
by using the smaller cal? I like the CZ52 myself, matter of fact I need to
get me another one! Pick them up really cheap and do some custom work on it
and you have a nice custom slabside for a fraction of the cost of the new
tricked out .45's . And sorry guys , I guess we have gotten way off the
aviation toipc here.

Patrick,
Hey, that old .45 certainly had better stopping power then a 9mm, but we
only had 7 rounds in which to hit the target! :-)
