So logically we shouldn't carry .38 Specials either? Geez!

Anyone wants to use the 22lr, revo or semi is fine by me. I am just pointing out what should be obvious; it is an unreliable round & has little to offer in terminal ballistics unless cns is hit. I suppose though that a false comfort by those that choose a 22lr is better than abject fear.
BTW, thx for proving my point about terminal affect. The LEO that dies still managed to fight. That is kinda my point. Yes the 22lr will kill, but as a stopper, uh. no.
