Just a little note on 9mm:

Yes, it's true that the police had problems with the 9mm early on. Why? Police departments used the 147 grain SUBsonic round, as recommended by the FBI at the time.

Instead of changing rounds, many departments went ahead and changed guns. 115 +p, 124 +p, and the 127 +p grain SUPERsonic rounds are very good.

Of course, if it were legal, my pick would be a sawed-off 12 gauge shotgun with 00 or 000 buckshot. Those guys "riding shotgun" on the stage coaches knew what they were doing.
