Conceal carry caliber

[smalldog]

I carry a 380 taurus PT 738 in the summer  when its hot and dressed down. In winter when I have more cloths I carry a Ruger LC9. I carried a 38 snub for about 40yrs and now the taurus and the ruger for the last 2yrs.  The whole idea of conceal is exactly that.  Never carry a gun that prints in your clothing when carrying. A 380 or a 9 will do the job, and if you have a job that requires you to carry a gun for protection in public service you would go with a 40 or 45. When carrying all day that dame gun will get heavy, so I have always carried the lighter guns. Just remember that you are not planning a shootout like police have to do, so their is no need for that type of weapon for everyday carry protection. That's my opinion and everybody has one so be safe.  Just remember that carrying a gun is a great great responsibility an when fired in public every bullet that leaves the gun has a Lawyer with it. You have a responsibility for every bullet.

My current EDC is a Glock 19 and my hopefully not too distant future EDC will be a Kahr K9 Elite.

with a .22 anything it's unlikely that you'll penetrate the sternum and knock out the spine, 

Want to bet? There is a reason why a lot of the SS carry FiveseveN's, and why LE want it banned (more so than the general ban on all firearms)

Lets also not forget that it was a .22 caliber round, shot from a FiveseveN, that killed 13 and injured another 30, some critically, in Fort Hood.

Any law enforcement or military or SS get to use the fivesevens full house loads. This ammunition is not sold to the general public. people want it banned due to a lack of knowledge and fear mongering

True, but my hand loads for my rifles are not available to the general public either. Purchasing a hand gun does not limit you to shelf ammo, at least not yet.

How many chip their vehicles, and improve the performance?

I figured you meant rimfire, but then again you did say .22 anything
