^^ You're joking, right?
No sir, I am not. Criminals are cowards.

+1I have carried a 15-rnd .45 concealed. I've also carried a 7-shot .32. They both have their places.

The starter gun on the "Fat man's mad dash tactical retreat."
That was meant to be light-hearted folks. No sense of humor on THR anymore?
If you're approached by a group of ten, your first responsibility is to your personal safety. Cars can be replaced. I wouldn't suggest anyone take on ten assailants. Make an escape and be as good a witness as you can be.
Please not this again......FBI was instrumental in developing the .40 S&W for KILLING POWAAHHHH!!!!!!!
Anything less and you might not make it out alive. I chose the G22 for a mix of round width and capacity. Its just a bonus to find out that the FBI issues glocks in .40S&W to protect there agents.
Heres the FBI's handgun wounding and effectiveness report.

I never subscribed to the "Spray & Pray" school of gun fighting.
Because the more shots you blast away with, the more times you miss.

Thank you for bringing logic to the party when few others would.I've seen a recurrent theme that implies anyone with a high capacity gun will inevitably "spray and pray" whilst the person who has chosen a revolver or low capacity firearm will calmly take their 1-2 shots, invariably ending the hostilities.

I wonder if anybody whose actually been in a gunfight still goes on about "shot placement". How people think they will be able to repeat paper target accuracy against moving targets that are returning fire is something that amazes me. Actual gun fights that i've read about and seen footage of very rarely allowed either party time to align for accurate shots. That being said, the ability to get the gun back on target, which often means in the bad guys general direction, and fire is important as is "stopping power".
When a gang of 10 is carjacking you, 6 or 7 rounds might not cut it. Put me in with the more is better crowd.
