This is… its an older meme, motivational poster format, wouldn’t surprise me at all if it was made by a gung ho Gulf War vet either before or not long after Iraq 2 Electric Boogaloo commenced, drenched in Americana gun culture pride.
There are plently of pistol rounds other than .45 ACP that are quite good in combat scenarios, most at this point would probably agree that having more 9mm over less .45 is preferable, otherwise 2011s wouldn’t even be a thing.
Also: its less common, but uh… 5.7?
5.7 is actually more likely to pen body armor, than a 9mm or a .45, if your scenario is you’re fighting against other people with body armor.
And you can make a double stack magazine with it.
And there are a fair number of Police, Intelligence, Military organizations that use the FiveSeven regularly.
And… there are now even a growing number of hunters who will tell you that some kind of pistol in 5.7 is their backup, in case of something big ambushing them.
357 is of course very powerful, but they’re also huge rounds in comparison to .45 or 9m… kinda hard to fit into a semi-auto pistol.
Yeah, this rule really irked me.

Unless you wanna talk about the .357 SIG.
… but we don’t talk about the .357 SIG …
