I'd take a .25 over a .22 any day.
I like my .25. It's accurate out to maybe 20 feet, but I can't throw it much farther with any accuracy. Arm isn't what it used to be.

I have both the PT model and the Beretta 21. You would need to tip open the barrel to reload the Taurus. On the Beretta either way will work (21A is easily rackable)..I don't want to get in a pissin match about it. But after you have cleared the jam, how would you reload the chamber? Carry an extra round, or rack the slide? I was not taking a position on the pt22 as a carry weapon, only correcting an inaccuracy.

...It's a beat up subject, but .22 LR is better than nothing and also better than .25ACP...

That means it would not be unusual for the assailant to not be moving at all but instead, to be shooting. IWC, it might be wise to use something that would stop him faster and without leaving it to his discretion. Just a thought.
I've shot mine accurately out to 50 yards, I'd try the 100 yard mark but it's rifles only.I like my .25. It's accurate out to maybe 20 feet, but I can't throw it much farther with any accuracy. Arm isn't what it used to be.
So you're saying that in some jurisdictions you can only shoot when you're being shot at? What jurisdiction would that be? Or are you of the foolish assumption that only a firearm is a lethal threat?

(a carry gun is not an equalizer, never was; it is only the option of last resort)
It is illegal to brandish in Texas I believe (haven't got the license yet but I'm pretty sure),
2. The locale around my business has declined and crime is on the rise. I worry about a close-of-day appearance by armed thugs. I have cop pagers at my biz but it takes them 5-10 mins to respond. I'd give the thugs any cash but one never knows if they might just walk us in back and execute us for fun/to stop i.d, or just start shooting for fun.
The .22 SHOULD be on the bottom of the totem pole.
