Is TEC-9 full auto?

No, the standard TEC-9 pistol is semi-automatic, firing one round per trigger pull, but its design (specifically the original open-bolt models) made it notoriously easy for criminals to illegally convert into a fully automatic weapon, which is why it gained a notorious reputation. While some video games offer attachments to make it full-auto, the real firearm is semi-automatic, though later models (like the TEC-DC9) switched to a closed bolt to deter conversion.

Is the TEC-9 better than the Mac 11?

The TEC-9 and MAC-11 are both iconic, large-format pistols with "gangster" reputations, but differ in grip, controls, and operation; the TEC-9 offers an AR-like grip and side charging handle but can be unreliable, while the MAC-11 (M-11/9) has a magazine-in-grip design (like an Uzi), a top charging handle, often higher cyclic rates (especially full-auto), and a simpler AR-style safety, both known for large mags and use in crime, though the MAC-11 (M-11) is famed for its extreme rate of fire, while the TEC-9's reputation leans on its association with high-capacity magazines and street use.

Why is the TEC-9 illegal?

The TEC-9 was banned primarily due to its frequent use in high-profile crimes, its association with criminal gangs, and features that made it appealing for mass shootings, leading to its inclusion in the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban and specific state bans like California's. Despite being banned by name, the manufacturer, Intratec, tried to circumvent the law by producing slightly modified "after ban" models (like the AB-10) with similar characteristics, but these were also targeted by subsequent regulations.

What's more powerful, a 40 caliber or a 9 mm?

Yes, the .40 S&W (Smith & Wesson) is generally considered "stronger" or more powerful than 9mm in terms of raw energy and potential stopping power, creating a larger crush cavity and excelling at barrier penetration; however, 9mm offers less recoil, higher capacity, lower cost for training, and modern ammo has made it extremely effective, with many experts preferring it for its shootability and capacity, making the "better" choice dependent on user preference and training focus.

Is it worth getting a 1911 in 9mm?

One of the primary draws of 9mm over . 45 ACP for 1911s is the significantly lighter recoil. In fact, the steel frame of a 1911 means that you'll get even less felt recoil than you would with a polymer-framed 9mm. The ergonomics of a 1911 are already pretty solid, and 9mm takes them to the next level.
