garmin vs magellin


GEO-ROMANS 8:28

Recommended Posts

Well I’ve never owned a Magellen, in fact I have only owned one GPSr and it’s a Garmin. I can therefore say that without a doubt the Garmin is a better unit.

What is the price of experience, do men buy it for a song,

Or wisdom for a dance in the street.................

Who in thier right mind would advocate the wimpy 9mm over the One True Cartridge, the .45ACP? At least with Mag v. Garm, I can see both sides!

I originally was going to tie that point into the garmin v magellin debate, but I lost my train.

 

Garmin's better!


 

Are you really trying to tell me that size and penetration don't matter? icon_wink.gif

What I'm saying is the two are of similar natures. Its the subtle differences between the two that must be explored by each user. Based on this exploration, a user can determin his/her preferance based on his/her preferred usage.

 

Just like Garmin and Magellan! (Finally I found my train.)

Please the .45 is a slow bowling ball. What good is it if you can dodge it?

With modern cartridges, the latest 9mm is nearly as effective as the .45. The stopping power page rated the best .45 at 96%, and the best 9mm at 94%. If this were the only part of the equasion, the answer would be easy. But, add in concealability, recoil, weight, ease of use, and this is why there are so many out there. Personally, if I were to own but one, it would be a SIG or H&K in .40 S&W.

 

But... I have 15,000 empty winchester 9mm shells ready for reload, guess what I use most?

 

A solid hit with ANY calibur is better than a clean miss with the best calibur. Use what works best for you.

 

BTW, I always carry my 9mm whenever I am geocaching. (just to keep it to a geocaching topic. )

Wow I've never seen the .45 listed with a one shot stop percentage so high. It's usually 86% or lower.

Excellent Choice in caliber!
