I finally got my Glock 17C
DrewKaree:
What's the weight of all of these differently-sized rounds? I'm gonna have to see which one is lightest, because throwing one will definitely be easier if they're lighter, and I'll prolly need several, although for Stingray, I can prolly find a big rock instead and save all my ducats for someone fearsome......ish.

9MM is a junk round and has been proven to NOT stop a person, it is a great round for target shooting and still is a fine weapon for home protection.

Tell that to the guy who's had several of those "junk rounds" inserted into him. Speak loudly. He may be dead and thus have a hard time hearing you. ;D

Glock offers HUGE discounts to law enforcement. It sounds silly, but think of the cost to a city of outfitting hundreds of officers with guns. If a city can save $20,000 by choosing Glock over Beretta or S&W to outfit a few hundred officers, you know they're gonna be all over it.

I'd rather have a high caliber rifle, but the people at my local grocery store frown on me when I'm shopping with an AR-15 over my shoulder.
There is an old saying, never bring a pistol to a rifle fight.
