Just another answer looking for a problem.

I said OK, let's try them both out on one of those old LP tanks that were out of date. We put one out at about 50 yards. I told him to go first. He fired a few rounds and all of the .45acp bullets bounced off of the tank. I fired one round out of the CZ-52 and the tank started spewing out a bunch of propane that was still in the tank. Then I fired a couple more rounds and put two more holes in the tank. Then we looked at the back side and there were exit holes. He was impressed and wanted one. But I couldn't find him a CZ-52 before he passed away. That being said, it is a round that would pass through a person instead of expending all of it's energy in a human target. I would rather depend on a .44 Magnum, .44 Special, .45 acp, or .45 Long Colt than the smaller 7.65 round unless my opponent was wearing armor. Only thing I know about the FT Hood shooter was that he used a 33 round 9mm Glock and a 5.7mm FN Herstal. I don't know which caliber caused the wounded victims and which caliber caused the deaths.

Major Nidal Malik Hasan, 39, used an FN Five-Seven, a semi-automatic pistol popular with SWAT teams, that can fire armour-piercing bullets.
A total of 13 people died in the bloodbath at the Texas military base and 38 were wounded. Hasan had bought the weapon legally at a gun store close to Fort Hood in August and practiced at a nearby shooting range. During the attack he also carried a Smith & Wesson .357-calibre revolver but it was not clear if he used it. It was the AZ shooter that had the Glock with the 33 rounder |

Agree with most, they got penetration, but where is the stopping power.
