So something that I read here on THR got me wondering about military handguns and such, and I ended up perusing
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_individual_weapons_of_the_U.S._Armed_Forces#Handguns
Among the interesting things that I noticed on the page was the fact that 22LR pistols are/were used by various specwar forces.
Does anyone here have any light to shed on the topic of 22LR military use? Do they use 22LR for "quiet secret mission" stuff, or just for training, or both, or what? I'm guessing that for military application they use FMJ.
Anything that anyone has to offer on the topic of 22LR in military use would be interesting, I think...
