"In the 1950's S&W developed the 357 Mag and it slowly became the weapon of choice for police departments over the years, but it too is a heavy weapon and harder to control recoil. During this time span the major 9mm weapon was the Luger, but if you ever own a Luger, you would not use it to defend your life, they are unreliable and jam quite often as well as only having 7 or 8 rounds of ammo. So out comes the Browning High Power and it is an istant hit in Europe, "-

the .357 came out around 1935....the Browning Hi power is also called the M1935 for a reason( to commemerate when the germans attacked pearl harbor obviosly
) and was used until the phaser came out in the 1960's
Damn I love alternate history lol.
yes 9mm with good ammo is a decent service handgun.
