[QUOTE="BillM, post: 4101477, member: 45785"] I actually prefer a 30mm, but they're pretty tough to carry, and the recoil is hell. I will settle for a .45, but only because OK law doesn't allow a .50 caliber. I also have .38 spcl/.357mag, because I couldn't afford a 2nd 1911, and my wife can't handle them. I'd consider a .22lr, since I have one. Pretty sure I can hit what I need to hit, but also know some folks need a lot of hitting to take down. Mom had a skinny, naked, Mexican teenager removed from her bathroom by several cops one day. He crippled the first two before they took him down. Angel Dust. Lotsa hitting, perfect shot placement, and a great deal of luck are required. Taught my wife to keep shooting until the threat stops. Her favorite pistol only holds 5 shots. Bought her 6 speed loaders. Her dexterity and strength are no longer all that great. Trigger thumb in both hands. Just hope I'm with her if she ever needs to fight. Not that I expect us to win...
