Shot with 9mm (not ".9mm" btw) ...what? FMJ? HPs? Which HPs? You have to know at least that much before making ANY generalizations.

Point of fact, most people shot with handguns do live. The issue is, what incapacitates your attacker the fastest? A .38 Spc round will probably not expand, so you'll have a .357" hole, neatly drilled. A 9mm likely will expand, so you'lll have a .5 - .6" hole, less neatly drilled.
