The debate over which pistol caliber is best for self-defense has been raging for decades (and by "caliber," we really mean "cartridge").

Say someone is breaking into your home. You have a gun. Can you kill them to protect yourself? Before 2008, in Wyoming, you had to try retreating before using lethal force.

I test fire a lot of firearms in the course of my work.

About half are run of the mill, credible, useful, and affordable. Then there are the better types and the below average types. But then some are exceptional. The Smith & Wesson Folding Pistol Caliber carbine .22 is one of the exceptional firearms.

SB 17 could be heard by the full Senate any day.
