[QUOTE="Owlcreekok, post: 2918416, member: 30378"] Was recently an article in the American Rifleman on the Colt Woodsman. In the article, the author related the story of a night watchman who carried a Woodsman as his duty arm. When questioned about it (as concerns the diminutive caliber), the man replied that he practiced regularly and a perpetrator would have ten rounds in him (in vital regions) before he hit the floor. My wife carries a P22. While not as practiced as the night watchman in the article nor her husband, I dare say she would have a 100% chance in a confrontation. Using her P238 or her Service Six, her chances go down to 80% and 50% respectively. It is all about practice. If you are not comfortable with your weapon, you will not likely become practiced. Her P22 eats whatever I give her to feed it. It is not exactly in the same condition it was when bought. They need TLC "as issued". Polish here and there, lap the slide & frame, etc. Her "duty" rounds are CCI, do not recall the cool name of them. They are copper plated solids. They need to drill deep and hurt important things, not try to expand to the size of a .45 just past the epidermis. [/QUOTE]
