So the main thrust of the article is this: If you are an International Man of Mystery (who can't really talk about all the stuff you've done, but will give advice to other such operators on the internet), and you find yourself in a situation where you have bad people chasing you in the dark and you need to pop tires, shatter headlights, then shoot out all the street lights on a dark stretch of road, and then shoot a bad guy multiple times right between the eyes, and the only gun and ammo available by law is a .22 pocket gun with no more than 200 rounds of .22, then a .22 is what you should carry.
I'm seeing shades of Gecko45 in that article. Nice little fantasy read there.
