"A former Captain of the IL State Police has written on many websites that during his tenure there they started using first the Fed. BPLE & later the Win. 9mm 115 gr. +p+ and that he NEVER saw a case where if failed to stop someone with a COM hit in hundreds of shootings. Now why do you think that was? The cops in IL are better shooters?"

Very interesting. I have a few 9mm +p+ rounds for a not formentioned carbine. Have not measered it yet but my guess its close to 1900 fps based on the 16" barrel.
