Looks like we are alone in one of the most dangerous cities in the US. Just locked the doors, as I hear the helicopters swing over Druid Hill Park.

druid hill area is pretty fucked anyway. Baltimore is only worth visiting for the aquarium anymore, and I guess if you're into baseball.

The only people who can get away with that are people out in country far enough that niggers can't walk there.

At least I'm armed. Hope I get to make it a Mac tonight

I have a little 22 carbine. Its still loaded from the riots.
>>77306823
Yeah, I am sure the score will go up tonight.

Why even bother with a 22 except for plinking?
>>77306842
I live in an geographically isolated part of the city. It is surrounded on one side by Johns Hopkins, to the south a confluence of a river and a stream, to the west a river and a highway and to the North some of the most expensive real estate in Baltimore. We are also on a hill that rises up and looks over a valley. Its pretty safe.
And my spot is surrounded by parks.

Oh man, I would never live over there.

Aim center mass. It'll skip across a skull sometimes, but you wouldn't believe the havoc .22 does to lungs and guts. Lungs especially, if it shatters over a rib.
.22 is laughed at by CoD kiddies and /k/ucks, but it's infamous amongst EMTs for being horrifically lethal in the torso.
>>77308257
Baltimore is not all Pennsylvania and North.
My neighbors are extremely vigilant and employed. We have a retired guy that is home all day, but we don't have ghetto problems... we have suburban crime. Like someone stole a fishing pole, and we caught two kids screwing in our alley. Not the Wire.
>>77308942
There was a sharp uptick in sirens in the Northern district. I heard the helo swing over again 10 minutes ago headed south... and now its back to the north.
>>77310140
It was cheap. The Ammo is cheap, and my wife is not used to guns. There is a Sub-2000 or AR clone in my future.

Yessir.
My brother is a Firefighter/Paramedic in SoCal and he says the chest wound is tiny from a 22, but the internal bleeding is horrific.
I, hope to never have to use it, but its short, quick, quiet and the wife is not scared to use it.
>>77306589
Good thing I moved from the city to my parents' house during the riots. Fuck that shit city. Got my money stolen twice and I don't even live in west baltimore.

You're saying a .22 is more lethal than higher calibers when shot at the chest? I find that hard to believe. 9MM, .38, they're gonna do more damage simply because they carry more energy. Maybe because its easier to aim a .22 and easier to get multiple shots off in a tight grouping, they tend to be more fatal, other than that I don't believe it
I took The Wire tour via Google Earth and I have to ask, why would anyone live in Baltimore?
>>77313321
Because you're a drug addicted nigger, thats why.
>>77313165
We have registration on AR lowers, but that could be in trouble:

Accident and assassination inflates .22 numbers, confusing the novice.
Don't worry about trophies, look at your situation.
Will you be right on top of the target, shooting point blank? .22 is probably preferable to minimize mess, noise and the bulkiness of the weapon.
Do you need something to stop moving at a distance? Take a look at .308.
>>77313287
I think it has more to do with the fact that a bigger caliber may just power straight through the ribs in mostly one piece, but a smaller one will break into a billion little pieces, all of which are slicing and dancing all of your lungs
>>77313287
Because it's not true. Bullets, once they've penetrated the target, wound by two mechanisms: crushing and stretching. For all intents and purposes, a handgun (especially a .22) lacks the velocity to cause tissue to stretch beyond its elastic limit. There are exceptions, of course, as the brain isn't elastic to any significant degree. But, really, a wound to the head is almost guaranteed to be incapacitating. What does that leave us? Crushing, the damage a handgun imparts on a victim is done chiefly by the tissue is crushes as it moves through the target. Yes, the trajectory of the round CAN change if it strikes bone, etc. but generally it goes in a straight line. While it's not impossible, it's extremely unlikely that a round will ''bounce around''. The only area where this might be somewhat common would be a bullet penetrating the skull at such an angle as to slide along the parameter.
>>77313287
The round either hits a bone and fragments, ruining the important meat-thing it landed next to and lodging a dozen pieces in it; or it hits just meat and tumbles in a manner unlike higher-energy rounds that travel straight through.
Not more instantly lethal than a higher-energy round in the heart, but you're much less likely to luck out and be salvageable and almost guaranteed to go into shock within seconds.
>>77313590
That sounds plausible, I can believe that.
Of course if you really wanted to do internal damage, you need hollow points.
>>77307070
>living in Druid Hill
You couldn't pay me to live there. Or anywhere north of Orleans St.
>>77313287
Nah, it more about the wife being comfortable with shooting.
I don't know what would be the best.
>>77313973
>Orleans St. yarg... I went to look at a house listed as "North Fells." It was in Section 8 housing and directly across from projects.
I passed. No pioneering for me...
North of Orleans: Hampden, Roland Park?
>>77313165
At risk of sounding like some sperglord fedora weeabo I'm seriously thinking of buying a fucking quality katana just for this eventuality.
When Tyrone and Shitavious and D'La'qua'trayvon kick down my door in a home invasion and I not longer have a safe full of black rifles...
I'm seriously thinking a two foot long razor sharp blade is my families best chance in that situation.
Thoughts /pol/?
>>77313193
>SU-16c
Looks good. Watched a Nutnfancy episode on that in 201X
>>77315295
Katana are shit weapons used as cheap sidearms that you didn't want to need to use.
If you want to keep the week theme, get a naginata. Short sword better for indoor use with a better thrusting point without losing too much of the cutting edge.
And go for high quality steel. The "traditional" way to make week swords uses shit metal, so you want to avoid authenticity in this case.

>>77313656
True the damage done by force is the biggest factor in a effective wound, however the idea behind using a .22 leverages the low velocity by the tendency for the round to lodge in organs. Rendering a quick and safe extraction more on the dangerous side.
A higher velocity round has little to no chance of doing this at close range.
>>77315958
Weeb.
Goddamn my phone just does not want me to type that word. Fucking hate not having a keyboard.
Anyways, if you really want to go all out, you can get a Ninjato. Should actually be perfect for fighting indoors, although honestly, you'd probably just get shot.
