Talk:Armed response vehicle

message: "Weapons include GLOCK 17 pistols for all officers, and each car also carries two Heckler & Koch MP5 submachine guns in a locked gun cupboard. Both weapons are chambered for 9mm rounds, selected for its good stopping power, in particular a statistically high one-shot stop probability."
I have great trouble believing this. The 9x19mm round has been known for years for poor - or at least decidedly unsatisfactory - ballistic performance, not least of which is a tendency towards overpenetration and consequently poor energy transfer. Now, I don't know what ammunition police forces here use, if they use high-expansion hollowpoints or what, but the 9mm round in its most basic form certainly has nothing approaching "good" stopping power, and a one-shot stop is luck if anything.
There's a reason so many American agencies are switching to .40 S&W...
I don't have any specific suggestion for a change, apart from removing that justification for the calibre - I'm just interested to hear the rationale behind including it.

message: What moron directed "Armed Response" to "armed response vehicle"? Evidently someone who wants to keep people away from the page for the 1986 David Carradine film Armed Response. Can someone change this?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.127.100.22 (talk) 07:07, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
