After I bought it, I realized that I couldn't conceal it, so I will need to buy another 9mm with a smaller factor.

I also want to buy a .22 to keep at home for market-crash type scenarios.

I'd get a subcompact glock 26 (9mm) or the 27 (.40mm) if you wanna conceal it.. I have both, very easy to conceal.

awesome, thanks for the tip!

Eventually, I also need a .22 with lots of rounds. A friend of mine made these recommendations (knowing I am on a budget) a Ruger 10/22 or a Marlin model 60.

But... holding off purchases for a while

Just know this, if you do go with a .22 caliber weapon, that caliber weapon does not have any knockdown power, so if you're using it for personal protection, or home protection, its not really gonna do any good to the would be intruder or robber. Especially for some intruder high on drugs. Even a 9mm, you'd still be lacking knockdown power. Once you start looking at .40mm, .45mm, or .357 then you're doing some REAL damage and achieving knock down power.

Just a thought. Something to keep in mind.

eRep eh??

I don't think he'd be using the .22 for anti-personnel, but for a general survival type rifle... small game hunting... that type of stuff.

The 10/22 has a great reputation and a long history. It's very mod friendly and obviously cheap to operate, as bulk .22lr is effing cheap!

I don't have one (yet).

I think a .22 would have more knockdown power than your .40mm and .45mm weapons combined

Yeah but you said .40mm, which would be .015 cal.

A .22lr probably won't kill someone right away unless you get a perfect hit, but it will kill someone. But the point of something like a 10/22 in a "end of days" situation is that you can get squirrels and rabbits cheaply and reliably with it.

They are useful and fun to plink with. And cheap!
