It is a "pi$$ poor" joke at best. I NEVER, EVER take a life-threatening situation as "joke material".

This was an idiotic remark then, and it still is. If you'll stand 3 feet from me and let me use your face and throat for target practice. Does that work for you? No? I didn't think so.

Contrary to popular belief/opinion the .32 can "punch above its weight class". Penetration is the forte of the .32. With Buffalo Bore's 75-grain HCLFP heavy penetration load, you can handily reach 18 inches in 10% ordnance gel. The 9mm Browning causes slide bite in the Walther because you are...

What will you do when you hear a "click" instead of a "bang" when you pull the trigger? Rimfires have the problem of the occasional primer failure. The .22 also employs a "heel" type bullet. This can allow oil to seep past the bullet and contaminate the propellant. This adds to the risk of a...

The .25 is not that powerful. In a "close encounter" situation, you need to aim at the eyes at 1 yard, and fire. Repeat until the bad person breaks off the attack. A magazine dump in the face will generally dissuade/stop the attack. this will provide you with the opportunity to escape the...

The "lack of penetration" line is a lot of nonsense. The .22 Long Rifle has either a soft lead or copper-washed bullet that may deform on impact, inhibiting penetration. Penetration is what counts with these short-barreled pistols. The .25 uses a true FMJ (50-grain) bullet. This aids in...

So... you'll depend on obtuse and anecdotal "old wives tales" as a basis for making such decisions. Hmmmmm... From these small "pocket" handguns, the .22 WMRF will, and always does, expend most of its propellant charge in a magnificent fireball. Distracting, it is. Effective? Ballistic gel...

It beats the hell out of nothing but harsh language.
