Intruder Invader Which handgun is more powerful? 9mm handgun or a .45 cal handgun?
I know this may seem like a dumb question but I am an idiot when it comes to firearms. I purchased a Sigma Smith & Wesson 9 mm SW9VE handgun about 6 month ago and go the range often and I love it. (click here to see--> http://web.quick.cz/terc/saw/sigma.jpg ). I have been looking at some .45 cal handguns to upgrade to and am just wondering which is more powerful and will have more of a blow to intruders/invaders when using for self defense/home protection? When I go to the range my 9mm sounds like a BB gun/Pellet Gun compared to the .45 cal the others shoot. If a .45 cal is better then a 9 mm which ones would you all suggest being that I love Smith & Wesson? I am open to try another market or brand of .45 cal handguns but want a dependable one that is not a revolver. It must be an automatic handgun. Any good answers to my questions or suggestions would be great. Any links to some that I can look at would be great also.
The .45 is WAY more powerful than the 9mm (I own both, but carry the .45). Just set he 2 bullets next to one another and see for yourself.......
As for the military switching calibers.... BAD move, spec ops nearly always chose to carry the 1911 (or one of the more modern handguns, but in .45 acp). Why? Simple its been combat proven to get the job done.
If you notice, more and more police departments (including the Fed cops) are switching from the 9 to higher calibers (.40 for the Fed) for the simple fact that they are WAY under powered.
The 9 makes an excellent range gun, but to trust your life? Go fo the .45

All of a sudden, there's a "Get IE8 now!" button that's appeared on my Yahoo toolbar.?
But unlike the Yahoo toolbar's "Reference" or "Weather" or "Pop-Up Blocker buttons," which can easily be removed with a CLICK, there's no way that I can see to remove this intruder (and as far as trying IE8, I already did and don't want it). How can I delete this invader that's crowding my toolbar?
Simply clicking it does not remove it. I have tried this all day, so these answers are inaccurate. Hopefully someone will soon find an answer, because I hate that stupid button. If I could download Firefox at work, you better believe I wouldn't even have this toolbar.
