Welcome to the forum neighbor!

We have ongoing threads here on the forum about proper self-defense calibers
and the pros and cons of each.

.38/.380/9mm are considered by many to be minimal acceptable calibers.

.40 is bigger but fewer rounds per same size gun.

.45 is bigger still but fewer rounds than 9's and .40's.

I carry my PT111 Taurus every day. Carry that one since it's your biggest caliber
listed. A .22 is considered a mouse gun and is a poor choice.

Read the current thread "Keep Fighting" and click on the link to read about a LEO who used his Glock .45 in a
shootout with a maniac. He put 6 shots into his torso, 1 into his thigh, and 2 to the
bad guy's ankle that almost took his foot off. Only his 10th Speer Gold Dot through the
maniac's eye stopped the fight by killing the BG.

You carry a gun to protect your life, and possibly your loved ones.

Build your carry rig around the Taurus, carry spare ammo, and one of those others
as a BUG. You'll be good to go.
