We've even talked about 9mm vs .45 ACP.
But what about a 1911 in .38 Super vs a S&W M&P 45C?
Again, the M&P is 2 lb. loaded. The Gov't Model is 2.8 lb.
Reloads for the M&P are 0.5 lb. The Gov't Model are 0.4 lb.
M&P has 8+1 shots. Super 38 has 9+1.
45C does 2d-1 pi+ per round. Super does 3d-1 pi.
With hollow points this increases to 2d-1(0.5) pi++ and 3d-1(0.5) pi+
Average damage is 10 for .45 ACP and 12 for .38 Super.
90 points downrange for the Smith, 120 for the Colt.
The blued steel 1911 has soul; an elegant weapon for a more civilized time.
The plastic fantastic has durability and a brutish aesthetic appropriate to the primitive savagery of today.
