Because you can find 9mm pretty much anywhere in the world.

Wow, looked like the homebrew equivalent of a Lee Loader in operation there. A box of 9mm from there is probably an hour or two's labor, so what, about a quarter?

I have seen an assortment of weapons in their inventory. Sigs, Berettas, H&K's all sorts of weapons for all sorts of purposes. You dont carry just one golf club do you?

I bet all of you 45 people are going to be pissed when and if we find out tat UBL was headshot with a 9mm and not a 45.... But I dont think that we will ever really know. Speculation is all there is to it. End result - he is dead.

I love all of the facts of that day that are coming out. Amazing what the imagination cooks up.

Reports are that the Sig 226 9mm Navy was the firearm that did the deed.

Demand for this gun is expected to go through the roof

It's only a matter of time before SIG comes out with a commemorative model...

Hmmm, Maybe gun manufactures should consider this type of "product placement" before high profile operations. Just like coke or apple in movies. ;)

Well, at least I'm glad it was a gun I'm not interested in. It would suck if you were in the market for one of these and this happened...
