Reply With QuoteI can tell you first hand that 115gr Cor-bon 9mm +P JHP doesn't go through car doors.
I can also tell you first hand that the Winchester/NATO FMJ Q ammo will go through both car doors.
As tinker stated, it depends on the ammo.

Again guys, on the topic of shooting through car doors, it depends on the angle of the door and it's thickness, also the type of bullet.

USP is also the most expensive.
Hey, this is America. We can afford to have the best!
I still think the 5.7 is the best. Lethality (I've heard it'll go through class IIA kevlar at 150 yards), capacity, range, accuracy, low recoil, what else do you need? They're not horribly expensive, either.
Odds are the 5.7 will leave much to be desired as a man-stopper.
It just doesn't have the right kind of characteristics or a suitable projectile.
Yeha, it still is kinda like a 5.56.
Thay're just plain cool, though. Escpecially the p90.
well It may be cool but there are a few questions too ask first how many companies make it's ammo?
if they can not keep up with the demand of the US Army then they cant be used
Then there is how many platforms use it?
To date the only gun that fires it it the FN57 the same would go for the .45 Gap with only Glock and Springfield Armory making pistols for that caliber.
Yes, but everything has a beggining.
My vote goes to the HK USP in something like .40 S&W. That is a fine, fine pistol round coupled with an excellent (if expensive) pistol.

My vote would go to the Taurus 24/7 .45, if they would build a U.S. plant. It's cheap and I've heard some very good things about this gun.
Anyone know what the Wildey is like?
It looks like it's a bit uncotrollable.

Honestly, the only people I know that like those weapons are the people who watch stargate: sg1.
I'm sure the p90 is fine, and an effective weapon. However, the 5-7 pistol would not be a good choice for any military. It's a real oddball caliber. If you don't want to go 9mm anymore, bring back the 45. No need to spend a lot of money on adopting a gun with 5.7 mm.
My vote would be for either a sig p226 or glock 17 in 9mm... They are bith used by many elite units.
.... If .45 is the way to go, I'm sure a good pistol could also be found in that caliber.
I hate Glocks.
I can't even imagine how many accidental discharges would result from issuing a gun with a short-light trigger pull and no safety.
Private: "Corporal, what happened to the LT?"
Corporal: "He shot himself in the foot re-holstering his glock".
Private: "Again?"
I know what you mean, but many units seem to handle them alright. Not to mention they are one of the most widely used LE weapons these days.
