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.
I was very clear with her these exact shortcomings and issues with the round. Tried to steer her towards a 9mm semi or the j-frame. Wasn't having it. She made her choice anyway after I suggested that it was better than nothing at all. My guess is in a few months she will move up to something larger and more reliable/effective.

But the bottom line is all handgun rounds suck and without CNS hits anyone will continue fighting if they have the will and determination. Freeze, Fight, or Flight.....
