Yeah, good old Alfonso! I always wondered what happened to him.

Unless you have it on tape, he never said that.

So why doesn't everyone just carry a 10mm and go on with it? [Rhetorical question].

I read a book "One Ranger", Joaquin Jackson and he stated that one of his preferences for a BUG was the .22WMR. With 20 rounds, I would be satisfied as my primary carry. The main reason I say that is shot placement. My groups with a .22LR pistol are much much better than with a centerfire.

Kel Tec 22 Magnum PMR 30

I like it except it seems too big for a CCW. I don't know much about Keltec, but reliability would be a major concern also.

Maybe a 9mm lied to him once and he can't forgive her.

Sorry, I just couldn't help myself.

There's no reason you can't trust more than one gun or caliber.
