Usually have this one near and have carried one since the early '70s.
Many years ago, I ran into a big city ER doctor in a bar and while we waited for the same flight, he told some stories of the ER.
Including one about the problems caused by 22 bullets roaming around inside of a patients chest cavity. According to him, a small RN lead bullet would sometimes glance off of a rib and circle a lap or 2 before stopping. This made a mess since there were so many bleeds that had to be stopped.
I already had a 22mag H-S a but hearing that tale re-enforced it's value to me.
Great guns the SW small 38. Look at the crimson trace grips and buy a quality self defense load made for small 38s. Critical Defense is one load to look at.
