Apparently the robber had gotten away with it previously, but not this time.

Sux for the shooter, they towed his home away as evidence.

I would be upset that they took my house.......AND my gun. They should have called it good....congratulated the guy and moved on to the ME with the perp's body.....case closed.

Victim may have also been in a hatchet fight wherein the other guy had both hatchets.

And he is out several rounds of ammo too!

Nope.

Glocks for when it has to work. Other stuff for range toys.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

It does show that Glocks work.

Yeah,after 13,17,maybe 19 rounds. A .45 in a 1911 one would have been enough.

I think you're getting that confused with 10 mm.

.22 is one of the most deadly rounds...

You got that right........accounts for more deaths (domestically) than any other round.....and.....with a well placed shot....can also take down....man, deer, hog, rabbit, squirrel.

Don't underestimate the .22LR

People need to understand statistics and mathematics before making these statements.

.22 is involved in more shootings, this does not mean it is a more effective round. One needs to look at the percentage of deaths incurred by a caliber, not the total quantity.

Also, it does not mean it is more effective at stopping the threat. The way a .22 can bounce around inside the body (re: Reagan), it can cause internal bleeding which can lead to death. But bleed out leaves the threat capable for several minutes.

Sure a well placed shot can kill anything, including in a self defense scenario. But under the stress of an attack, fine motor skills normally degrade. Shot placement becomes a challenge when adrenaline is pumping, the heart is beating so hard you can hear it in your ears, emotions are sky high, etc.

I understand........22 LR is not my go to......but it kills......it is cheap.....and will probably never be subject to restrictions like centerfire ammo might be.

I think this story proves that Glocks are more effective for personal defense than other handguns, especially 1911s.
