If I was Glock Ges. I'd call it '8MM Auto'.
Square eyed people who have their 'Mustn't Miss TV Series' say they think of their fave characters as friends .. I've got news for them - these actor a-holes haven't & don't want to meet them.
I know we all have our most personal favorite calibers and cartridges .. and brands of gun makers too.
One excellent way to raise blood pressures and RAGE is to mock a Glock - or a S&W or Colt 45 after first verifying your range mates preference and size. - Always good for a laugh when you're an old fart like me and immune from attack (mostly).
.380 ACP - 30 Super Carry - 9 MM
The 30 SC drives a 100 grain projectile at 1,250 feet per second velocity with low recoil levels. This is 347 foot pound of energy (470 J). The 1mm reduced diameter when compared to 9 MM permits around 20% more ammunition to fit in a double stack magazine - while this caliber maintains the same fine accuracy potential as the early .32" Centerfire target pistols.
Most educated thinkers with IQs above 40 understand that SHOT PLACEMENT is the critical factor for effective self defence from murderous attack - unless your personal SWAT TEAM is three deep between you and the threat.
You need an adequate power level that YOU can shoot accurately and quickly.
60 foot pounds of energy is accepted militarily as sufficient to disable .. That measure is surpassed by .22 LR.
- All you need to do is hit the target WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE HIT.
Greg Ellefritz An Alternative Look At Stopping Power - Linked:
The records clearly show that the most effective handgun caliber for ONE SHOT INCAPACITATION is the .32" (8mm). - No arguments .. Just FACTS.
Get your SAAMI Specs here for 30 Super Carry ..
- So that's the cartridge of choice for a semi-auto pistol .. while revolver fans can rest assured with the 327 Federal Magnum.
WHY? - Ease of shooting accurately a powerful compact cartridge sized for maximum capacity.
I'm talking about a "Carry gun" - not being 'loaded for bear'.
If you are already set-up for 9MM or .40 S&W or .45 ACP don't panic .. just train and practice with what you have eh.
Here's a good article and video about the Federal 30 Super Carry:
So there you go then .. when will Glock Ges. introduce their 30 SC 8MM Auto models?
