If this doesn't clinch it, nothing can!

Just any .45? What about .45 long colt versus .45 acp?

I've seen this video before. My biggest criticism is that he left out the devastating firepower of the .25 ACP. :coolgleamA:

Years ago I was showing a friend (who was a very experienced shooter) a .25 ACP that I had bought my wife. He said "if you shoot someone with that, you might make them mad".

Close; "if you shoot someone with that - and they find out about it - you might make them mad"

A video that linked off the one posted. Was a very interesting watch. It is a medical video and has some graphic images in it. So if you got kids around or are squeamish might want to give it a pass.
