Pumpkin Eater Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 i remember a few months back expressing concern about the growing Muslim population here in Columbus and the terror attacks that will come with it. I did end up buying a Ruger sr22 to carry and I'm glad I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cysko Kid Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 you're crazy to be carrying a .22 when you could have a .45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkin Eater Posted February 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 .45 too big. The 22 is perfect to carry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cysko Kid Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 .45 too big. The 22 is perfect to carry I'm a big dude so I guess that's relative. I wouldn't feel like a .22 has appropriate stopping power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a Barretta Bobcat 7 shot for the wife to keep in her shoppe. Even she thought it was too weak. A can of wasp spray has more stopping power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkin Eater Posted February 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Nah. Just get hollow points. .22lr bullets are also pretty deadly. I also got high velocity copper plated hollow points. http://www.hickokfamilygenealogy.com/Lethality_of_the_22_LR.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogicIsForSquares Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 A .22 can do the job but it is definitely not the best option by a long shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogicIsForSquares Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Has there been anything to even identify this as a terrorist attack? From what I read, the people in the deli knew the person who did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LogicIsForSquares Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 Israeli restaurant, wasn't it? The guy was on the FBI's "watch list". You got a link to it?The story I read was pretty vague and just said the deli owners knew the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clevfan4life Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 I'm a big dude so I guess that's relative. I wouldn't feel like a .22 has appropriate stopping power i would think there's some middle ground between the two, no? I'm a big dude too but would probably be annoyed trying to conceal a .45. Open carry, sure might as well go big or go home right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted February 13, 2016 Report Share Posted February 13, 2016 a .22 can be effective to a point..... but in a tough situation, it's too small to be depended on, I think. http://www.buckeyefirearms.org/using-22-self-defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
