This lifelong John Wayne fan is still alive because he does not live in a "Gun-Free Zone".
Let's pray for his swift recovery.

His comments were hilarious. He said something along the lines of “I’m a better shot than he is and the next time I’ve got a 50, uh shut up. All I can say is he better not come back.”

Well that answers my question, I was looking at one of those little 5 shot 22LR derringers wondering how good they would be, now we know.

But you can take them with you a lot of places in the summer you can't take a .357. And, it's tough to answer the door with a .357 in your PJ's. People think it's kind of unsociable when it turns out to be a friend. One other downside--you have to cock the derringer between rounds.

KelTec P32 can go anywhere. Does fine in the pocket of running shorts while running. No need to settle for 22.

Isn’t there a story? I can’t get the video.
What’s this about a derringer?
