Re: FL: Man "asks for it," gets it

...I've seen over two dozen grown men lay down and die from the .22 short right there on the street...I'm a believer that it's lethal...when I was making a whole $500 per month, I carried a High Standard snub with .22 LRHP in it as my backup for about a year...till I could afford something better...with proper bullet placement, it's adequate...I wouldn't advocate anyone choosing a .22 rimfire as their primary...but I wouldn't do anything to make someone with a .22 rimfire to shoot me, either...never saw it "explode" anyone...but I've often seen it reduce blood pressure to a big fat 0...

...an unnumbered, unnamed group of family businessmen have used the .22 round for decades with great success, as have employees of a rather large Company...just sayin'...

Re: FL: Man "asks for it," gets it

...I fear/respect the .22 short lead bullet as much as I do a .357 full house...back in the 70s, the .22 short was the primary weapon chosen by most of the criminals I handled (RG10)...I saw more die of that round than any other...the coroner told us that you'd more likely die of the .22 short than a .45 because it bounced around inside and created more holes than the heavier bullet, and the Dr. couldn't stop the bleeding soon enough...proof was in the pudding...then crime seemed to get more profitable, and "folks" went to the "nines"...now they have money enough for anything they want...
