It’s no secret that a number of American law enforcement agencies have recently changed, or announced their intent to change, to the 9×19 cartridge from larger-caliber service pistols. Most notable among these is the FBI, which has indicated plans to switch from the .40-caliber GLOCKs they have issued as standard since the dawn of the 21st century to GLOCK’s 9×19 pistols.
