Arty,

The guy that was shot with a .45 cal, was he under the influence of PCP?

Keith,

I'm still learning about various weapons of interest to me. I'm by far no expert on any weapons. So, I'm just going to ask the questions. I was wondering if you feel we need more stopping power, such as, the 7.62 round because of the type of enemy we are fighting today?(terrorists)

I recall someone telling me the .223 was an excellent round for shooting during our past fought wars. His reasoning behind it was that the .223 often times wounded the soldier instead of killing him requiring an additional two soldiers to carry him off the battlefield. I suppose it wouldn't apply to the type of people we are fighting today because they don't seem to stop for their wounded on the battlefield, correct? Heck, they tape bombs to their chests and send them to checkpoints to kill our kids.
