I'm certainly not knocking .22 LR. I have a single-shot .22 rifle that I've head-shot coyotes with. And a semi-auto .22 rifle with scope that I pick off rabbits in the garden from the house. I'm just saying a .22 handgun doesn't do a handgun's jobs very well.
And WTF is up with the price of .22 LR ammo? It used to be 99 cents for a box of 100 (maybe I'm dating myself a bit here). Then you couldn't get it retail at all. Now it's almost as much as 9mm. Really guys?!?
Oh, and there's an interesting little exploding .22 round, explodes somewhere downrange. If you really want to freak out the neighbors.....
