“personally i prefer a pistol as primary but have you ever heard a pistol fired indoors? believe me, it’s LOUD!!!”
Comedian Bill Burr has a bit about picking a 22 pistol for self defense, and being mocked by his gun guy friends. His answer is if someone breaks into his bedroom and he misses in the dark with a 44 mag he’s going to be deaf and blind for the second shot. It’s a fair point.
i’ve heard it, funny as hell... and he was outdoors!
