My Precious, don't take my Precious, pleeeeaaaazzzzzeeee.

Magoo wakes suddenly in a darkened bedroom and sences movement near the foot of his bed. Reaching under his pillow for his trusty revolver, a big 22, he finds the trigger and wildly aims into an out of focus haze. He shoots and hits himself in his piss erect dong.

Hence, the wisdom of back-up guns, Rosborne.

Everyone knows about backups, so they would take that as well. Which means that you will need a backup for the backup and so on and so on.... I recommend that you walk about like a gun-porcupine just bristling with armament over every square inch of your body.

(by the way, you're missing the point, this thread is just to tease you for being a gun nut.

And it's good to see you have a sense of humor about it.
People with humor are less likely to go nuts and shoot everyone
with their vast inventory of completely unnecessary guns).

The only problem is that this was based on a true story I read in a newspaper in the early 80's.

As far as 22's I have a High Standard semi automatic 22 that was bought surplus from the Marine Corps. It seems that during WWII each Marine company was issued two of these handguns to use on long range patrols. Morover it was a favorite weapon of the WWII OSS when fitted them with a silencer. So, yes a 22 may not be a good 'defensive' weapon, but it is a hell of an 'offensive' one.

It's an homage, not a biography.
