TactiSMART 010: Need .22LR for EDC/SHTF?: K.I.S.S. Answer is CardGun & Adapter--Warding Away Thugs & Hunting for Wabbits


"You see why I’m an absolutist? You see why I want to open carry and encourage ALL gun rights advocates to do so? If not, remember the old saying 'out of sight out of mind'? Add this: 'a right that’s hidden is soon forgotten.'"

---Robert Farago: "Open Carry Backlash" thetruthaboutguns.com/open-carry-backlash/

During the Obama ammunition grab, many American patriots went crazy stock-piling ammo--to include tiny .22 LR which can be owned in the thousands taking up little space & weight. .22 LR is the minimalist ammo type that can be shot to get small game food and/or self-defend.  

Constitutional Every Day Carry (EDC): .22 LR versus Thugs 

The right to defend yourself with things like guns is an inalienable right; it is derived from God aka NATURAL LAW--actually not from any human laws. 

The U.S. Constitution's 2nd Amendment (slang: "2A") is now being used as the basis for "Constitutional Carry" laws but be advised that we shouldn't have to need ANY law to do something which is already our divine right to do. While Constitutional Carry laws are vital reforms America needs as it grants both open & concealed carry without paying the government fees and opening oneself up to government personal dirty tricks, I am NOT advocating CONCEAL carry for self phone-lookalike guns, you Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) snobs. Some of us live in OPEN CARRY states but are smart enough to not have an X placed on ourselves in the digital data bases of potentially corrupt sheriffs (many are Secret Society, FREE MASONS) who are going to pay their 1st gun confiscation visits to their county's CCW holders. Moreover, some of us don't want to constantly cough up money and submit to a DEEP STATE background check in light of the realities that the FBI constantly lies about decent people to keep them out of government service--do a FOIA and Privacy Act request on yourself and discover the possible lying digital McCarthyist shit they have concocted about you--claiming of course its backed by NSA 24/7/365 illegal surveillance means. SPYLYING.

The most powerful and smallest 9mm x 19mm Luger semi-automatic pistol is the 8 + 1 shots KelTec PF9 which should be James Bond's new gun carried secretly in a velcro-secured "STEALTHGUN" holster in a designated side of his tactical pants or openly in a holster on his rappel-capable, Rigger's belt.

However, James Bond Citizens (JBCs) open-carrying guns that look like guns might "trigger" the 50% American immoral HEDONIST libtard wokester-jokester liars to make a false police report against you resulting in you being hassled and them not being punished for their criminality. JBCs should have a badge saying "OPEN CARRY" by their holster to remind libtards that this behavior is more than legally kosher--and it has nothing to do with being a wannabe or a phony as some gun snobs pontificate on the internet, and no--it doesn't make you appear to be impersonating an officer. America: nation of immature back-stabbers looking to find fault with everyone else--this tendency applies to both HEDONISTS AND STOICS. READ what the "OPEN CARRY" badge says. Have the state legislature make it abundantly legally clear that wearing an "OPEN CARRY" badge is kosher and desirable in light of back-stabbers. Here is a great "Second Amendment" badge that will do the job nicely.

BEST ANSWER:

Sean Sanders, Gun Enthusiast, I've shot handguns, machine guns, and RPGs

Answered May 15, 2018 · Author has 8.7k answers and 17.8m answer views

Why do people choose to open carry instead of concealed carry?

There are a few reasons a person might open carry:

Legal: the person may not have a CCW permit or one that is recognized in that state. More states allow constitutional open carry than constitutional concealed carry.

Practicality: open carry allows you to carry larger weapons. I don’t really recommend carrying around long guns for defense but a full-sized handgun would be fine.

Comfort: it allows you to carry in ways that might just be more comfortable because you don’t have to make concealment your priority. It also allows you to dress more comfortably in hot weather.

Some people will say this makes you the person who gets shot first. I call BS. Prove it. Show me all these open carriers getting shot.

****

I'm with Sean, CCW snobs are frankly "element of surprise" pussies claiming they will take action who don't want to deter thugs by open carry, who instead actually have a built-in escape plan for themselves to not take action in event of a crime--they are only thinking about themselves. EVERYONE IS SUPPOSED TO POLICE THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS, the professional cop is a fairly new but intrinsically failed invention--a victimology racket that America was NOT founded on. In the military "police" means cleaning up after a mess has already happened--not stopping the mess. 



Every MAN in the open carry 45 states shown below on the map should open carry. OPEN CARRY MUST BECOME THE SOCIAL NORM. One smart-ass defeatist claims that the need to open carry means your society needs to be fixed--WRONG--open carry IS the fix for BAD HUMAN NATURE which is not going to change until God himself comes to Earth and fixes man's fallen nature; until then better have a gun. There should be studies done on all the crime scenes where CCW gunsters were present at a crime--AND DID NOTHING--lest they get tangled in legal troubles--no SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY--just look out for #1. If this defeatist, pussy outlook is "conservative" then its an example of right-wing EVIL many claim doesn't exist.

A New Open Carry Option: Guns that Don't Look Like Guns   


  
Another new option is to open carry a gun that looks like a smart self phone camera that stupid people live their lives thru their tiny screens claiming they are fully aware and powerful www/666 internet-wise that fortunately have to get these things out of their hands in order to live life with some kinetic safety-efficiency. Many carry these 3" x 6" self phones on their belts in holders. A couple of self-phone lookalike guns are now available: the LIFECARD in .22LR or .22 WMR and soon the Ideal Conceal in .380. 


   
Here is the way to carry the potentiallty very-quiet-with-subsonic .22 LR ammo or .22 WMR LIFECARD by OPEN CARRY in a Kydex holster:

https://www.trailblazerfirearms.com/product/lifecard-kydex-holster/

LIFECARD KYDEX HOLSTER
$39.20 – $49.00

The more powerful .380 caliber Ideal Conceal self-phone lookalike appears to have a belt clip built-in: 

idealconceal.com

If you are James Bond or just happen to like & EDC a .380 Walther PPK, this gun could be a helpful back-up staying to the same cartridge type via the K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple, Stupid) principle. 

Check you state's laws--you might have to lock your Self-Phone Lookalike Gun (SPLG) in a locked case in your car's trunk when driving. No problemo: a superb gun case with cable to secure to your trunk's spare tire arm can be had for under $20 and can be by key or combination. If during a high-stress situation you think you'll have a brain fart, use the key model and have a key on your EDC key chain and 1 other hidden location known only to you.

If you have to use your .22 LR SPLG with 70 decibel-quirt subsonic ammo, it will not make very much noise--sounding more like a firecracker set-off by immature youths. You can didimau out of the area before more thugs converge on you. I do believe you should drill into your muscle memory re-loading your SPLG from their grip storage area if they have one or a designated pocket on your clothing or pouch on your belt.

Shit-Hits-the-Fan (SHTF): .22 LR vs. Bugs Bunny

Many gun nuts out there have a gun fetish wanting more & more guns. This is your divine right. However, some of us realize only a finite amount of weight can be placed upon our bodies (60 pounds) and have us remain at least 1 mph mobile so we can't have a separate gun for every purpose--that if slung at our back we may lose like befell the CIA/SEALs losing their 40mm Grenade Launcher (GL) during the Benghazi firefight or we cannot stop a firefight to go to a vehicle to get the new gun's capabilities--ideally the needed functions should already be co-located with your primary weapon ("A bird-in-hand beats 9 in-the-bush" wisdom) as the 20mm aka 12-gauge Assault ShotGun or 40mm GL under the AR15/M16/M4 combination offers. In previous TactiSMART articles we demonstrated how a Picatinny Rail Attachment ASG can easily mount under an AR like the AR15/M16/M4 making them an AR/ASG. The weight of a GL can be avoided by having a few bullet-trap, Rifle Grenades (RGs) which could be stick hand-throw grenades, too if manufactured that way. Don't hold your breath for the MILINDCOMP empowering Soldiers in such ways.

The Firearms Blog (TFB) has a SHTF video offering weapons packages, one includes a full-sized, .22 LR Ruger 10/22 rifle for small game for survival food hunting that frankly, I cannot afford its 5 pounds and long stick-likeness slung at my back. 

If I were to carry a separate .22LR, why not something more compact than a wooden-stick 10/22, say Stoner's AR-7 that detaches into its own floating buttstock?



The James Bond movie, "From Russia with Love" showcases the AR-7 as a silent assassination weapon as well as a scout helicopter killer. In the next 007 adventure, Goldfinger, a sexy lady tries avenging her sister dying of nude body gold paint at the hands of creepy Auric Goldfinger with an AR-7, misses and then sets-off a wire fence sensor with its barrel as Bond and her surveil the AURIC Enterprise factory. The sound editors use large caliber gunshot sounds for the tiny .22LR which should really be quite quiet even without a silencer!

https://www.fieldandstream.com/the-pros-and-cons-of-subsonic-cartridges/

QUOTE:

At sea level, the speed of sound is roughly 1127 feet per second. When a moving object, such as a bullet, breaks that threshold, there is an audible shock wave that sounds like the crack of a bullwhip.

A standard .22 LR load delivers around 1200 fps and 140 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle. The typical subsonic .22 LR offers around 1050 and 100, respectively, a negligible difference to any rabbit. So while the energy to cleanly kill small game remains, the downrange crack vanishes. And as smallbore competitors know, subsonic .22 LRs are more accurate than supersonic .22s because they exhibit 37 percent less wind deflection due to the disproportional increase of air resistance near the sound barrier. When subsonic .22 LR ammo and a suppressor are combined, you’ve got a whisper-quiet, deadly accurate small-game firearm.

All the major ammunition manufacturers offer subsonic .22 LR loads. CCI’s Subsonic HP, for example, reduces velocity to 1050 fps and therefore lowers the decibel level to around 68, almost half the normal high-­velocity .22 LR load. (Any .22 Short cartridge will accomplish the same thing, if your gun will shoot them.) However, subsonic rounds may have trouble cycling the actions of semi­automatics reliably. If you shoot a ­single-shot, pump, or bolt-action rifle, you’re good-to-go. If you shoot a semiauto, try Winchester’s new M-22 Subsonic .22 LR, which fires a 45-​grain bullet at 1090 fps and is designed specifically to work with self-loaders. In any case, with subsonic ammo, your rimfire will still be hard on game but easier on the ears.

Excellent accuracy and velocity in a true ultra-quiet plinking Round! Quiet-22TM is about as loud as standard air rifle ammo, but offers much better downrange performance. It's perfect for legal shooting areas where noise may be a concern, and makes a great "soft" introduction for the young shooter. And this round is great for shooters using bolt-actions or single-shot rifles (but is perfectly safe in semi-automatics, though it might not entirely cycle the action). So save your ears... 68dB @ your ear - up to 75% quieter in perceived noise vs. standard .22 LR rounds…get Quiet-22 Ammo and ditch the muffs.

Keep It Simple, Stupid: Combat-Carry the .22LR Adapter--NOT Another Gun



IMHO, if SHTF continues beyond a few months, the unpleasant situation will settle down from the TBAM human threats, and as food supplies run low, the TBATE threat of starvation will kick-in and small game hunting by .22 LR (Bugs Bunny) can be minimalistly (sic) effected (KISS Principle) by an adapter replacing your AR15/M16/M4 bolt carrier group or in the chamber of an underslung Assault ShotGun (ASG) described in earlier TactiSMART articles. The small and lightweight (less than a pound) Ciener kit is in the affordable, $100 price range and can be held in its plastic box or in the G.I. cleaning kit pouch or a large Tactical Tailor (TT) or Military 1st pouch on your person--LBE, buttpack or rucksack as its carry "home" until needed.

The G.I. cleaning kit pouch is appropo because it can carry cleaning rod sections and cleaning patches to unfoul your barrel from .22LR soft lead residue after extensive firing.
