      Mass shooters and Body Armor

      I managed to catch an up-close .357 mag in the 1980's wearing Second Chance soft body armor (don't recall what level) with a K30 steel trauma plate. The round partially caught the edge of the K30. I was down for the count. Winded, stunned & seeing stars. The entire left side of my upper torso...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      Awesome! My only further recommendation is to get one of those oval-shaped "Chinette" disposable platters for a target. 1. Orient the platter vertically, like a center mass target (do not draw a bulls-eye or anything else to focus upon.) 2. Put tape over the sights of her pistol 3. At 10...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      That 10/22 will get the job done. See the lung pile on Post #86 of this thread. That handiwork was compliments of a 10/22 in the hands of a 16 yr old fighting off an armed home invader.

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      Very well put. They fail to view through any lens other than their own. And apparently they did not watch the news story of a home invader (a hopped-up murderer) who tried to kill my 16 year old son down in Houston (click this link). My son was armed with a thoroughly tested and reliable...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      Don't you think that's just a tad bit of sweeping declaration on your part?

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      That's painting with a pretty broad brush. Wouldn't you agree that every selection is situation-specific? Would you disagree that there are certain circumstances where a .22LR would be preferable, say, a child or a woman with lesser skills and tolerance to a larger caliber? Thanks. It's been a...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      BB guns don't kill (normally)...a burst of 40 grain round nose .22 LR bullets out of a rifle will drop you dead real fast.

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      With that length barrel, his 9mm will punch like a .357 magnum This is why entry teams use 9mm compact rifles for their primary weapon, not shotguns nor pistols. I'll bet the length of that Hi-Point carbine is a little less than the width of a typical doorway...and for good reason. May want...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      Dang right. Here's the work of a 10/22 on a hopped-up home invader. (home invader was armed with German Luger and shank screwdriver). Chest shots from a 10/22 tore him up and dropped the sucker dead. That's his lung on the deck. Required a flat-nose shovel lift that thick crap up. His name...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      Yeah, I'm definitely with you on that comment...hard to get my brain around that. But the homicide detectives I've dealt with have told me that indoor shootings with a .22 rifle (assuming using solid point ammo to the chest cavity) normally results in someone dead pretty darn quick. So true. My...

      Is .22 that bad for home defense?

      Boy, that's an understatement...;) So many people just assume that a pistol is what they should have for home defense. I think it's always healthy to challenge that assumption and see if it really is the best option for them in their situation. For instance, entry teams don't use pistols for...

      .22 Beat a 9mm... Hello yuwaix,:welcome: There have been a lot of really good comments on this thread. Unfortunately, the few atrocious ones come across as being so authoritative that I could no longer be a lurker. Ok, here's real life. Three years ago, my 16 year old son fought off and...
