G'Day Fella's,

Thank you for sharing Ripp.

They say that, "Those that ignore history, are bound to repeat it".
Whilst bullet technology has come a long way in the last 20 years, from what I understand, when it comes to offensive and defensive handguns use, there is no substitute for bullet diameter.

In my own experience, I would say that this has more to do with budgetary constraints than cartridge size. That being, it is easier and faster (use less ammo), to train an individual to be competent to pass a test with a 9mm Para, than it is a .40 S&W, 10mm Auto, .45 ACP etc.
Multiply this by the cost of training and qualifying 10,000 FBI agents, and there is a possible answer.

Doh!
