Read the link. Only a minor amount of alcohol was found in the guy's sytem...no other drugs.
.40 isn't magic.
BTW--you still trying to claim your .380 is 9.65mm?

Anything out there with a trigger system like SA or Glock?

In .380?
The new Walther PK380 would be pretty close, or a .380 Sigma.

Ever watch the recent Detroit Police Precinct shootout???? It is on YouTube YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. I have a friend at that precinct.... Guy took SIX 40 cal rounds, some at near contact distances and you never see him flinch..... all while firing 12ga slugs and birdshot rounds point blank. I do not know if he was even on anything.
Recently Lansing MI police tradded in their 40 glocks for 45acp glocks. Nothing is garenteed in the world of self defense/ballistics... Bring All the 380's out that you want but I will never have a 380anything on me to protect the important things in my life.

Yeah, in a .380. I almost bought a Walther. Would you trust a Walther as your CC weapon? They are kinda finicky I heard.

I wouldn't mind a 380 single stack as an Ankle Carry/Backup gun. Or even a 9/40/45 single stack. Right now I have 4 XD(m)'s and I've haven't found a comfortable/concealed way to carry more than one of them at a time.

I have XDM's in 9, 40, 45 and I love them all. That said, I'll stick with my Kahr 380. It is small, reliable, and it feeds Cor Bons like they were ball ammo.
