The "Deadly" 22lr

[FrogHunter]

Most of them however would have been able to beat, stab, or shoot you to death before bleeding to death hours if not days later.

22 is better than a sharp stick, but not much.

Stupidest sh*t I've heard today

Nice to know we have so many experts in firearms, ballistics, anatomy, and physiology on here to clear this up for me. I feel so dumb here

This should clear up a lot.

On dogs. That gun is called the hush puppy for a reason. They use it to silence barking dogs that might give away an operation.

They originally intended it as a former of NONLEATHAL crowd control as well but people kept bleeding out and dying in the hospital so the quit using it on people.

My problem with the OP isn't the .22lr part, it's the SR22 part.

If for whatever reason, I could only carry .22lr for self defense, it would be in a REVOLVER. I know the SR22 gets rave reviews, but it's still a semi-auto .22lr and because of that, I would NEVER trust my life that it would function reliably.

from what i read about the IDF using the suppressed 10/22 is they used it for bothersome dogs and riot control, they would pop em in the knees when they got too rowdy. but they had to cut down on the use as they were actually causing some to die of there wounds

Straight from the article: commando units used them to take out sentries and dogs before entering an area to maintain the element of surprise. If you read the article they stopped using it for a while because it had to be re-classified to lethal force. Either way, it was killing humans.
