Depends on who is in charge.

My real question is could they turn up in the civilian market?

ok?

Stay with the M9. What's this MHS crap. Sounds like our people just want to spend more money and get us deeper and deeper into debt like we already are.

I wonder what it would take to get 10mm seriously considered.

They will be melted down and used as materials to build "work" camps.

Thank you for the clarification.

No, they can't.

Clinton (or maybe Daddy Bush, can't recall) signed off on a law which prohibits the .gov from selling handguns. That's why all the rest of the 1911's got cut up instead of being sold through the CMP.

That said, you don't want a milsurp M9. If you want Beretta goodness, just go find yourself an Italian 92FS. The .mil M9's are tore the **** up.

that particular man very well could have taken 16+ 9mm's shot by that same particular officer...

Or just 1 .25ACP

shot placement is key; more chances to get that shot is better

What happens to the 200,000 M9's? I'm thinking that they will end up in the hands of HAMAS, Al-Qa'ida, or Iraqi "freedom fighters".

Maybe they will go to the cartels in Mexico.

Rest assured ... they won't end up in your hands or mine.
