    I remember similar articles when the Army adopted the M9. One in particular explained how this new flat point FMJ was so superior to .45 of course they didn't compare it to flat point .45 and the army never issued flat point ammo.

    The military's old handguns (M1911, M9) can function just fine with HP ammo.

    Paragraph (a) does not necessarily lead to paragraph (b).
