It may also allow you to be crazy enough to snatch a gun out of someones hands. No doubt he has a little crazy. If there are people like my brother then you can bet there are spun badguys with that mentality also... hence dont pull a gun if your not gona pull the trigger. Just my 2c.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Not advocating the .22 as a personal carry weapon, but in 1989 the DOJ determined it probably that more people had been killed by a .22 in the U.S. than any other caliber. So clearly it is lethal- just how immediately incapacitating is the issue.


 In 2009, US Army Major Nidal Hasan killed 13, and severely injured (immediately incapacitating) 30 more, in the Fort Hood "workplace violence" shooting.....all with a .22 caliber handgun.

 A big caliber handgun that you can not keep the muzzle on target with is not as effective as the one you can. :twocents:

That was a fnh five seven. That is completely different then a .22 long rifle

 The OP never specified "rimfire" or "long rifle", he said .22, which includes the FiveSeven and .22 Mag, yes they are completely different, but still .22 caliber.

 Was his intent the .22LR?  :dunno:

Might as well as include 556 then also, that's a 22 cal bullet.

 That's the point, .22 caliber bullets are plenty leathal.

No that is not the point. The velocity of a .22 lr and the velocity of a 555 are completely different along with the grain of the bullet. There is a reason why our military is using 556 instead of .22lr.

 Well thank you captain obvious, now show me where the OP specified .22lr. ;)

My Dad used to carry a 22 mag Derringer all the time.

JDB Sorry I pushed this sideways by mentioning a 22 mag.

This officer shot the suspect multiple times with a .40 cal pistol and the officer still ended up dead and the suspect still was able to flee the scene. If this man is able to drive off after being hit multiple times with a .40 cal am I willing to trust a .22 lr to stop someone? NO!.

cuz you are a cop in the line of fire against the worst of the worst all the time.  mkay.  wanna know something carrying is a huge PITA for someone like me and I have survived almost 50 years without ever owning a gun let alone carrying one.  Been raped once and mugged once.  not bad for the amount of years.
when I carry I carry what I have and what I have is a 22 so feel free to screw with me when I am carrying and see how you hold up see my thought is I aint an inner city cop and running up against a person who wont be at least slowed down by a 22 is gonna be a rarity.

silly boys all thinking you need to be giant bad butts with yer big flipping guns simply cuz you can and one story says oh look this COP had a bad deal happen.

be glad all we have as a regular drug is meth I would hate to see a bunch of pcp users out there, for the not in the know that would be angeldust, old drug, post vietnam, created by yep our government, cuz they are good at cooking drugs.

But feel free to continue to tell everyone anything smaller than a cannon is just not enough.
