There was a thread on this not so long ago on here. Seems the
police won't grant pistol calibers for field use.

Yea she said maximum was .223
I thought that sounded daft as although .357 is the larger
caliber i think everyone would say .223 is a bit more potent!
But when i asked further they said theyed been through it before
and it was always a no!

So what if I was to invent a gun that fired necked down .50
cases that took .223 heads. Would that be ok for field use?
Refusing a caliber based on it's diameter is a bit daft. Each
cartridge has it's individual characteristics. Those
characteristics are what should be taken into consideration. I
cannot understand the mentality of it.
