its more humane for his target since ammo that could punch thru armors will be fast enough and hard enough to go in and out of a person without leaving behind a messy exit wound. -

Again, armor piercing is just one of the many advantages of the 5.7 over a 9mm. If I have to spend an extra 70 cents per round to have an advantage in a potential life or death situation that con ceases to matter. -

2021-10-23 at 5:03 PM UTC5.7 is impractical. You want something that can be chambered to your sidearm. SWIM has several keltec sub2ks (one has a conversion kit with it which has 50 fucking parts all with individual plastic packaging and NO INSTRUCTIONS) 2 which are chambered to .40 and one to 9mm. If he were to take the 9mm he would carry a glock 17 wit da button dat make it go brrrrrrr (the keltec and the glock take same 32 round mags) and if he takes one of the .40s he brings along a Springfield XD 40 (the XD is the face you make when you're letting it off) which although they do not share interchangeable mags, they take the same ammo (and the XD clips aren't super tense and are easy to pop rounds into) and are obviously very compact and easy to carry around. Very comfortable and accurate.
SWIM also has an antique 5 shot.44 bulldog (actually .445 but doesn't do any damage to let .44s through it) that is legal to carry as it was made before 1898 and has paperwork proving this to be true. It was the weapon which ended President Tafts life. He also has a Ruger Mark 3 which is just super comfortable and accurate for picking off partridges and other small game.
A 5 shot ruger .357 is impractical. SWIM knows from experience they kick like a mule. There is literally a 6 shot ruger .357 revolver that's better. If you're just trying to find a ruger with a big punch like a cowboy get a super Blackhawk .44 magnum, load it with hollows and let go of any tension you might have

" Well That's just your opinion man"
Well I told you why I believe some of your choices to be impractical but do as you will. I imagine a Florida boi like yourself would have grabbed up some keltecs. SWIM has one that's 5.56 and drops shells into a neat little pile, its used by corrections officers in the states and armored car drivers as well.
Do you have any cool antiques? -

You simply stated your pinion that the 5.7 was impractical without providing even so much as a word as to why that is your opinion. Only telling me that "You want something that can be chambered to your sidearm".
You then proceeded to talk about weapons that you owned. Followed by another opinion on a 5 shot snub nose .357 in a generalized manner. Almost any weapon can be practiced depending on the persons needs and the situation is is designed for.
I have already posted ITT the facts about the 5.7 which clearly show it's superiority over the 9x19mm on a sidearm application. So the if the 5.7 is "impractical" as a side arm what does that say about the 9mm?
To the .357 it is not carried as a primary it is carried as a back up. That is the role a snub nose revolver is designed for. The difference between 5 or 6 rounds in the moment it would be required is insignificant. I have a Crimson Trace laser grip on mine that is sighted for 7 yards. I'm sorry if a .357 has to much kick for you in that platform I don't have that experience when I practice.
I have some cool guns. There are tons of people who way cooler shit than either of us.
I do own a 1941 M1 Garland with the Danish variant barrel in mint conditions with a sub 2 million serial number. But I don't brag about it or show it off.
I will say this, I k ow tons of gun owners. Almost everyone I know is a fun owner. Not one of them tells each other that what they carry is wrong or tries to brag about what they have is better. Makes me wonder is all...
Also I may have lived in Florida for 4 years but I'm not a Florida boy. -

I never said I own any because I do not. It sounds like you are a "fun owner" who doesn't have a practical purpose for firearms at all. I didn't read any posts ITT
If you just like weird chambered pistols why not get a tokarov 7.62x25? They're cheap and insanely durable.
If you're just a big ol bag of fun, what's the point in mentioning you carry almost 100 rounds with you daily? Obviously no practical purpose other than to make you feel like less of an emasculated old fart. I bet you fantasize about teenagers wearing che Guevara shirts hassling you so you blow them away -
2021-10-23 at 10:20 PM UTCSWIM is trying to find 11mm for a French MAS from sometime shortly after 1873 and nobody say .45 acp will work because it will wreck the barrel and devalue it.

Gotcha, you don't know dick about firearms and your just trying to make yourself feel better by imaging things about me. I had you pegged when I said, "I will say this, I know tons of gun owners. Almost everyone I know is a firearm (this was an android autocorrect error) owner. Not one of them tells each other that what they carry is wrong or tries to brag about what they have is better. Makes me wonder is all…".

You are really horrible at expressing your native language. Are you even American? You seem to have the cognitive ability of the lowest rung of the intelligence totem of the US but your language skills are sub Papua new guinean. I don't even think you know what you are attempting to say.
Just try emojis from now on, it will be clearer and more succinct -
