that I sometimes carry as a second gun.

I know several people who know a lot about guns who carry a .25, one of them carries nothing else and he owns a gun shop and could carry anything he can lift. One of my .25's - an Astra-made Colt Junior - was a local street police officer's backup pistol for his career.


As far as "stopping power" goes, I think a lot of that depends on the person being shot and the shooter. I remember a story from WWII told by a young LT of Marines in the pacific who shot a large Japanese infantryman with his .45 pistol....8 times...without putting him down. I guess he had not heard of Col. Cooper...

Aim at the largest possible target and shoot several times.
