I currently have a Glock 19 and am in the market for another Glock I want to choose between the 21 23 30 and 36 OR get the 26 to go with my 19 and im having a hard time picking one lol I know what the current prices are for 9mm ammo but what am I looking at for 40 or 45 ammo prices and what are the pros and cons vs the two?
9mm and .45 are the common pistol rounds. We have both.
Just like 5.56/.223, 7.62x39 and 7.62x51/.308 are the common rifle rounds. We have the first Two.
.22LR is good and cheap for practice if you have an identical pistol (and a rifle). We have both.
Shotgun - 12 gauge. Handy to have as well.
When ammo is in short supply, riots or other bad things happen. It's good to have backup firearms with alternate common calibers. Plenty of people to possibly trade with.
My wife has 9mm and she is small frame but shoots my xd45 fine.
It's all down to practice. The recoil on the .45 doesn't bother her at all.
