Lets face it, the real reason police don't carry .45s is because the
average cop can't hit a bull in the ass with any kind of pistol. Give
him a .45 and he won't be able to hit a barn. There are lots of cops
that can shoot very well but they are spread out among many police
forces. Usually there are a few cops on a given force that are gun guys.
The rest are not. I was a cop for a while back in the days when we shot
.38 revolvers. When we went to the range we used low power wadcutters.
We shot the police L and a lot of the guys couldn't even hit the paper.
