Seen here:
If you shoot me with .25 ACP and I find out about it, I will personally kick your butt
They expand on that in a more realistic manner but I thought it was funny.

I remember a failed mafia hit in the 90s where a really fat guy was shot a dozen times with a significant caliber and all the rounds just went into his fat and stuck.

In all reality, a .25 has got to be more effective than the shots Kelli has made against Uncle on the “reasoned discourse” BC blog.

their staffer mentioned me? I didn’t even notice.

Also, those guys are doing an experiment in gelatin restrained within a tube. You’re not supposed to encase the gelatin in anything. Humans don’t have exoskeletons to contain hydrostatic shock.

JimW, I read the story yesterday and completely discounted their results for that reason. An additional reason to ignore their research is that 72 cm of fat would kill a man almost as fast as a bullet anyway.

Kelli’s says she’s not a staffer. She’s just a sycophant. She called you uncivil. It’s most funny.

I’d bet $100 she is a staffer.

My mom emptied a 25ACP into a raccoon once, at about 6 feet away. Didn’t seem to affect it much, until my dad put a 22 from a rifle into it’s head. The fur and fat prevented the bullets from penetrating into it’s internal organs.

My daily carry gun is NAA Guardian in .32 acp-silvertips. I consider that minimum, but with the laser slipper, it prints “wallet” in my back pants pocket. Jack.

Several years ago the proprietor of Crystal River Pawn in Crystal River, FL was attacked by a sword-wielding nutcase in the pawn shop. He related the story on the alt.rec.guns discussion board after he got out of the hospital. The nutcase jumped over the counter and attacked him as he sat at a desk. His first response was to push away from the desk to avoid the sword coming straight at him – and leaving a loaded firearm in the desk drawer. He retreated back through the store – past a loaded shotgun propped in a corner, past a small room where his AR15 lay disassembled for cleaning – back to his office where he attempted to slam the door on the attacker.
He failed. He ended up run through by the blade.
Whereupon he finally remembered the .25ACP Browning in his back pocket. It was then, he reported, that he knew he was going to survive. He remembered drawing the pistol, and he remembers firing three shots. The police reported that he emptied the magazine, striking his assailant at least five times. At least one round entered the eye socket of the nutcase, and he was dead on the spot.
A .25 ain’t much, but it beats having nothing at all. And, as with real estate, location, location, location is everything.

I agree with Kevin. A .25 can leave quite a mark, maybe break the skin, possibly even get infected.
It could also cause permanent hearing damage. Quite dangerous.

There’s a reason they call them “noseguns”…

If I ever manage to score some spare time, I’ll get to the range and tell you how my new (and free) .25 shoots.

Hey, she said that my site was a “nutjob site” for insane people or something to that effect.
I thought it was great. My traffic went through the roof that week. 🙂
All gun bloggers should unite in trying to arouse Kelli’s ire.

don’t laugh at the .25 ACP:
