This. .22 is definitely lethal, however it is not necessarily incapacitating in the short term. Self defense goal is not to kill, it is to Stop attack, asap.

That’d be my guess. I suspect a forensics lab could “Raise” some markings.

Nothing inherently wrong with Blazer, I’ve shot a bunch because it was cheap. My only point was that it is NOT crimped. Normally not a problem (unless you’re shoring a Bond Bullpup, in which case you’ll see a kinetic bullet puller work😏

Yup, don’t know of any serious gunmaker that doesn’t have Some markings on their products-plu usually a “proof” mark. Pistol looks rough-any chance markings were, ahem, “Removed” by a previous owner?

This, plus large aggressive predatory critters. I’ve heard the argument for years that “A mag full of.22 whatever the newest LR round is” will stop anybody,and maybe it would if anybody’d stand still and let you shoot ‘em full of holes. Problem is I doubt that many assailants are going to be...

Never even saw one before. Nice piece. Love my old W German 220

I’ll be honest. I just don’t get the rationale for the new round at all. I mean it’s not much different than an old 7mm-08 or even an ancient 276 Pederson. It requires a “Special” case to hold a LOT higher than normal pressure (meaning it’s going to be extra $$$) to produce, recoil appears...

FWIW. Blazer ammo is not crimped-if that particular one was out of spec even a bit it’s possible recoil from previous round “pulled” the slug a couple .001’s. You Mike the oal of the round?

Tough call. It does resemble the baby Browning, but there were maybe a zillion knockoff’s and quasi copies made worldwide. At one time.25 was ‘“The” caliber for concealment anmd a lot of folks tointobuilding them. Some were quite good, some junk. Any markings on it at all?

Which is why I gave up on NASCAR many years ago. North American Stock Car Automobile Racing-yeah, right-nothing “stock” has been around for decades not even a Body panel😏

You mean when men were actually MEN?

Mine’s been flawless. If it’s jamming I’d ship it back to FN

Nothing says leave me and mine alone quite like a 12 bore. With the right load it’ll deal with any issue one may encounter.

There IS no “best”-WAY too many variables pertaining to shooter size, skills, preferred carry method, etc. etc period. The “best” for YOU may be totally unsuitable to and for me. Best is what YOU can comfortably carry, shoot accurately, and has enough power to deal with any threat YOU are...

Like all those “fully semi automatics” I guess..
