As we've had the whole 9mmP-vs-.45ACP-in-the-military debate, I would like us to explore other options for military use. If you could decide on the new military sidearm, what calibers (other than 9mmP & .45ACP) would you choose?
I would choose the 10mm. It's a large-bore, but it has enough power and penetration for military use. It can also be adaped easily to hi-capacity pistols (HK USP) and silencers (heavier bullets for subsonic use). And the 10mm really shines in longer barrels (i.e. SMG's)
I'd also suggest the 9x25 Dillon (10mm necked down to 9mm) as well. See reasons above.
OK, quartermasters. Name your options...
