A .22 is a good option if you prefer to drop the bulk and CC with a lighter profile

Glock 45 is my EDC.

No. Do not CC .22. That is really not smart.

Does it go bang? Will it blow a hole out the back of your perp? Can you fire more down range with significantly better accuracy for virtually everyone? Can you CC carry with a super low and unobtrusive profile while still killing someone that tries to harm you? Can you fire it without losing your hearing and getting disoriented when you don’t have ear protection? Which of these have negative answers?

Unfortunately no I do not live there, here even just getting the documentation to be allowed to buy a gun is a nightmare, but that only allows me to have one in my house. Carry it? Nops, not a chance. And then there is the obscene price it goes for like 5 monthly salaries minimum wage :sadyes_sm:

All of the issues with 9mm guns you allude are a matter of training. And without at least basic training and regular visits to the range you won't be effective anyway. The advantage is the much higher power of each round and do not think you will place many of them on your target on the move, in a stressful situation.

Amen to this! Living where I live I had to go through elaborate process and pretend to be into shooting sports (well, along the way I got into one of them: IPSC) to have guns at home. That one would live in one of the last if not the last country on Earth where people can have guns and not use this right is beyond me.

The point is it’s easier overall, particularly for a woman. Most people don’t receive the required training anyway and your defensive means will usually take place within 10-20 feet anyway. I’d rather pull the trigger 5 times on target than 5 times with 1 on target and 4 elsewhere.

I already said my piece.

You said nothing. Got it, you can’t defend your position. Pathetic.
