a question about the acu'rzr....

Seeing the vastly increased expansion you get, has anyone done any "research" into the increased effect it would have in using the .22 as a "defensive" round??? Don't want a discussion on how "X" caliber is far better (we own .357's and a CZ75 9mm)... Just want to focus...

Re: OT: .45 Autos

Give the CZ brand a look before you plunk down your hard earned cash. They build a good reliable gun at decent prices. As to Nick Nolte in "Extreme Prejudice"....look closer at the close up shots....that isn't a .45 bore!! More like .38 super I think you'll find... but the gun is still bad...
