I once read a Baltimore homicide detective's take on 9mm vs .22 years ago. He said that they had more murder cases from .22 handguns than 9mm because the 9mm would be more likely to penetrate the body, whereas the .22 shell would bounce around inside the body or head and cause a shitload of damage. I have a .22 myself for home defense as well as a shotgun.

that is a two cent urban legend and gently caress you for spreading it. they see more .22 because .22 is cheap and quiet and 95% of retailers don't think of it as a Murder Caliber.

if you are not rich and white and you shoot somebody with a .22 you will be sued for 100 billion dollars by either them or their estate on the grounds that you wanted to shoot to maim. they will ruin your life and make it so that you wish you lost that gunfight years ago

yeah, a .22 is better than nothing but sooner than later you're gonna want either an AS Val special assault rifle or a VSS vintorez in 9x39mm machined tungsten carbide cored subsonic ammunition, which not only is your ONLY reliable way of taking out an attacker wearing an armored exoskeleton, but it also has the stopping power to take down mutants in a pinch, and it produces no muzzle flash or supersonic crack, making it a very effective commando weapon. The only downside is it doesn't have an available grenade launcher attachment, meaning that you might be in trouble if you run into a pseudogiant, so you'll want to keep an AN-94 Abakan (which has a special 2 round burst mode in which the second round will leave the barrel before the recoil is felt by the shooter, allowing both rounds to hit in the exact same spot and penetrate all known body armor) with an attached GP-25 grenade launcher, and maybe an RPG-29 if you can find one.

btw, the gun isn't to protect yourself, it is to use on yourself if things ever get to that point

I don't think that's the intent of the people buying hundreds of rounds of ammo.

Unless they are planning something REALLY needlessly elaborate, that is.

its also the most abundant ammo and capable of hunting small game so unless your only goal is to murder people as efficiently as possible, its probably the best combination of utility and deterrent

FistEnergy posted:

yeah a Ruger 10/22 is probably the Correct choice for price/utility. AR15 is probably overkill if I'm being honest with myself

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:

.22lr will kill things and is still used by poachers etc.

Modern mandating of larger cartridges for medium game (aka deer etc.) hunting is more due to the idea of the ideal of a clean instant kill shot; basically near the heart or lungs by a larger caliber round. A .22lr will usually kill a deer (or human)... eventually. Maybe after a few hours or a day or whatever and you have to track them while they die, which is why it’s usually not allowed for hunting (maybe in some states it’s allowed but dunno).

If society were to break down a .22lr will do fine for subsistence hunting. Not good for people because instead of being able to track them down as they die they may track you down.

But society isn’t going to break down over COVID. Except maybe in America because it’s a garbage country.
