There's been much discussion on caliber and that a 22 LR will kill you if put in the correct place, and I agree, however this isn't me, it's my wife, she's not had the years of training, practice, and experience in high stress situations, and like I said I hope she never has to use it in a personal defense mode, but if she did I want her firing the largest round she can handle effectively.

Let me also clarify in terms of 9mm vs 40 cal, I can get 40 cal right now, and have been able to find it much more reliably than 9mm in the past 9 months in my area, now I know that eventually the ammo shortage may loosen up, but all things being equal (or near equal), price, availablity, etc I'd choose 40 cal over 9mm.

Just my .02
