Still lethal though, although not my first choice
I know. I own 2 guns chambered in .22 lr. I am aware of what it can do. Id like to see it in 9mm or .380
.380 is the bare minimum IMO. But then I prefer carbines and AR 'pistols'.
3d print wouldnt be strong enough to handle more than 22lr for more than a few shots
They can 3d print metal
I've heard a .22 with a supressor described as the perfect assassin gun. Even in a crowd it doesn't even sound like a gun, and a hole is a hole.
I wouldn't trust a 22lr to go through a skull.
That's nonesense.
They'll go right through deer and pig and cow skulls
I think they can, depending on the entry point. But more importantly someone who considered themself an assasin would have spent time researching what places on the body would be appropriate.
Ummm a .177 pellet can close enough.
Supposedly a .22 revolver was the favorite tool of organized criminals. It wouldn't make much noise even without a suppressor and if one of the rounds misfire like most .22s occasionally do, you just pull the trigger again and get a different round. I recall seeing a video where some mafia thugs killed a guy with a .22 revolver, it actually looked surprisingly effective.
Where did they shoot him, and how many times? Just curious.
I saw a video of a tough looking boar go down with a single shot to the head from a .22. Definitely better than airsoft.
That shit's quiet without a suppressor. There was a dude next to me at the range a while back shooting a .22LR setup and I thought he was doing dry fire drills. I told my buddy, "damn, that dude's hammer spring is strong." Turns out he was shooting. It just sounded like a loud "clack" from a hammer.
