In the US, and for sure Texas, most armed conflict is within 9 feet.

At that range, a .22 could be lethal.


Indeed. It COULD be lethal.

And if you shoot the perp in the eyesocket..it probaly would be Quickly
Lethal.

Now if you tie him to a post and secure his head...you have a pretty
good chance of shooting him in the eye socket.

On the other hand..out on the street....

and most shootings occur inside of 7 yrds.

If you are inside of 9 feet..Ill have that gun out of your hands and
stuffed up your sinus cavity before you can say oh ****!



Dream on, Gunner.

We all have our illusions, dont we?



Something Im curious about....

Im not sure why a number of posters here think that a street gunfight is
like walking up to the 7 yrd line, they blow a whistle, everyone grabs
their handguns and on the second whistel, they shoot at stationary full
profile targets.




I've been there - it ain't.


Really? Why not let that others know that?


But that's the difference....

So do you carry a .380 as your primary defense pistol?

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
