There were a number of GGs using a number of different weapons with a number of different calibers. Moving away from 9mm was just one of many changes. Another change was moving away from revolvers.

one line that simply baffles me from that article "LEO’s miss between 70 – 80 percent of the shots fired during a shooting incident"

wow if their hit ratio is that low maybe they need to rethink there officer training.
Get some friends and some air soft or paintball guns and set up different shoot out scenarios involving moving targets and cover. You will be shocked by the results and that doesn't factor in life or death fight or flight adrenaline.
You simply can not compare standing in front of a paper target with a shoot out.
