Rethinking the best home defense weapons: a look at the .22

[NorthernRaider]

My wife would never be keen on using a 12 gauge, nor would my mum, so a 410 would be the only option and they are also limited in capacity, so again I would go for a compact semi auto 22LR . Naturally if any calibre was available I would go for 9mm in both pistol and carbine I've no desire to play Rambo.

As I said before you only have to be lucky once with a 22LR, and with something like a 10/22 you can be lucky 30 times in about 6 seconds I respect everyones personal preferences they all have their own reasons to make their choices.
