Im not buying the story about the 9mm has more stopping power than the
.45.

The .45 is like the lottery, a tax on people who are bad at math.
Force is mass times the square of velocity. The 9mm is MUCH higher
velocity than the .45 with insignificantly less mass. The 9mm simply has
more stopping power with less recoil and weight than the .45.
.44 Mag has PLENTY of stopping power, more than the .50 IIRC but it also
has PLENTY of recoil unless you've got a heavy gun or some sort of
recoil reducing device.
