No such thing as a 22mm pistol - anything 20mm and above is considered a cannon, anyhow.

You're probably thinking of a .22 pistol, which is .22 inches (although the diameter of the projectile is actually .223 inches).

As for which is better, what are your needs? If you just want something to plink with, I'd recommend the .22. If you want something for self defence, then definitely the 9mm.

Which is more powerful knock down power 9mm or 40cal?

The .40 caliber typically has greater knockdown power than the 9mm due to its larger bullet diameter and heavier weight, resulting in more energy transfer upon impact. While the 9mm is effective and has less recoil, allowing for faster follow-up shots, the .40 caliber is often preferred for its stopping power in self-defense situations. However, the effectiveness of either caliber can also depend on factors like bullet design and shot placement.


Can a 40cal magazine fit a 9mm?

No, a .40 caliber magazine cannot fit 9mm ammunition. The .40 S&W and 9mm cartridges have different dimensions and are designed for different firearms. While some firearms may be able to use interchangeable magazines, this is specific to certain models and not a general compatibility between the two calibers. Always consult the manufacturer's specifications for compatibility.
