Is a .22 Caliber Handgun The Right Choice for Defensive Training?
This video discusses the suitability of .22 caliber handguns for defensive training. While acknowledging their strengths for learning to shoot, practice, and competitive events like Steel Challenge, the creator argues that the minimal recoil of a .22 doesn't adequately prepare shooters for the recoil management required in defensive scenarios. The presenter suggests that while .22s are excellent for initial training, a transition to a defensive caliber is necessary for developing speed and precision for self-defense.
