Bullets HURT!!!
Even a .22 LR which is more likely to bounce off a cotton shirt than do any lasting damage.
Perhaps the SAS recognise the fact that you don't necessarily have to kill to take an opponent out of the fight. The higher capacity of 9mm weapons over .45 is definately a bonus and the .45 still isn't a sure kill (although it's certain to mess you up if it hits).
