After a range visit she practically needed physical therapy for her strong hand. We solved the problem by leaving the .380 in the safe and buying her a Ruger SP 101, firing .38 Spl +P+ JHP ammo which has more stopping power than both the .380 and my Glock 9MM. As you said, "to each his own".

My sole reason for buying it is for the bugout bag. We'll still have the AR 15 and 12 gauge with us but can leave the "standard" 22's (pump and bolt) behind. I really like the semi-auto configuration, too.

I only hope the guns are still there and haven't been stolen from "custody".

I live in the Atlanta metro which is home to Glock USA. Afterwards, I drove directly to the Glock facility in Smyrna, GA where they inspected it, replaced the recoil spring, cleaned and lubed it, test fired it and gave me a free 17 round mag (it had a 10 round mag when I bought it). I knew all would be well as Glock guarantees all their guns for a lifetime. The gun is now 10 years old and was likely a LEO weapon back when they carried 9MM. This purchase saved hundreds off the new gun price as well as any gunsmith costs, and I have a virtually new weapon that has never failed to go bang, and I run over 200 rounds through it per month at the range.

Just maybe, less than 70+ people would have died.

Remember .380's are called "mouse guns" and lack penetrating power. Sure, the bullet is similar but there's lots less powder to push it. And possibly even more important is the lack of size and weight of most .380's makes them painful to shoot. Always train with your carry gun, and a .380 is no fun to train with. A .380 makes a fine backup "ankle gun" but is not adequate for primary carry.

Since I have a "prosperous" midsection I was continuously pulling up my pants that slip below my "prosperity". I learned a great tip from another blog that solves the problem. Wear a t-shirt under your outside shirt and use suspenders over the t-shirt (the t-shirt keeps the suspenders away from your skin). This system keeps both the pants and the gun where they're supposed to be and makes carrying a full size gun very comfortable.

I have two .22's, a bolt action and a pump, neither of which would be my go-to gun in the event of any attack. I'll stick with my AR or AK if you please. But the ZK-22 is a cool addition to a collection already having some real weaponry.

If a criminal takes a policeman as prisoner I would call the prisoner a hostage. Now, if a real state of war were declared I'm sure all would agree Israel would win, and it's to their credit they use the restraint they do by only responding to attacks. Peace is possible if the Palestiniams/Hammas really wanted it, but it's obvious they don't.
