The 9mm Parabellem 124 grain round has the same energy as the 45 ACP 220 grain. The deal is that it is the way that the 45 ACP deposits that muzzle energy into the target. I had to carry a 9mm in Iraq I have qualified with it and there is no substitute IMHO for the 45 ACP. The 9mm may be light but the 45 ACP delivers the goods.

Brownings are extremely nice pistols but again I don't like the feel of the 9mm. I have a Sig 228 and a 225 but for the lighter frame higher capacity I like my 229 in 40 SW. Fantastic pistol.
