Vasili Blokhin shot over 7,000 people to death with the .25 acp. So um, it can do the job. Shot placement is everything though.
During WWII when he was with the OSS, female agents asked Col. Jeff Cooper about carrying a .25 auto. Col. Cooper's reply was: "By all means, if it makes you feel safer, but don't load it. If you load it, you might shoot someone with it, making them very angry and they may hurt you!!".
Col. Cooper said it and I believe it. Go with a .22LR or Magnum. . That's the way I'd go if I was betting my life on a small caliber pistol.[/QUOT
Col. Cooper was an extraordinary man. Love hearing stories about him.

I'm sure you'd agree there's a big difference between executing people or shooting unsuspecting victims vs. stopping an aggressive attacker.
