I'm thinking to stay small with the .22 or .38 because I'm confident I can keep it on target and keep my balance through multiple shots. I don't want a bigger kick because, well, I'm tiny.

But I'm considering the 9 shots of the .22 over the 5 larger caliber shots of the .38. Trust me, once I start, I'm won't stop shooting until the target is dead. One way or another. Advice from the cops. Just wondering if I want more chances or bigger damage.

Bigger damage, ya never know how many rounds you'll have the chance ta get off, if ya hit "something" anywhere with a larger caliber shell, "it" won't git up  .  .  .  take a look at a 9MM, with a 12-15 shot clip if ya want both  .  .  .  not that I know ANYTHING about this sorta thing, or nuthin'  .  .  .  wink

I think a nice 9 mm Glock would be a good choice for her.  Not too much kick, and packs a whallop.

I'm pretty awesome at taking down clay pigeons with a shotgun. Or anything else for that matter.

Always wanted a derringer... I'd like something I could easily conceal. wink And, well, I'm a good shot.

P.S. - I think you're just trying to help along Jesse's suspicion that you were (and maybe still are) a black ops solider or secret agent.

9mm has a higher chance of jamming when I need it. Rather go with the revolver.
Going to get my concealed weapons license. All I need now is some camo and a John Deere hat and I can officially be a redneck. I already live in Polk County.

Are you charging for the shoot to begin with? And how late? If it's TF, you can simply tell 'em to take a hike. Trying to charge is likely to get you nowhere unless they're already paying you, and then you can say no shoot w/out extra $$.

Frankly, I'd love to charge photographers for all of the times I've shown up to TF ready to rock and roll and they end up fucking around with their damned equipment for the next hour or two. That's fine if there's a MUA, but when the model comes shoot-ready, YOU be shoot ready.

I can't charge, so I grin and bear it and just never shoot with them again.

Well, except the boyfriend. Boy-o says we'll all go down to the location together, so I get all ready, then when we get down there he and two other people spend a couple of hours setting up lights and silks and reflectors and all kinds of bullshit, while I stand around and melt and hurt my poor feets in horrid shoes. Anyone else and I would have just left.

Yeah, they are paying. It's not so much the photo shoots, it's my video shoots. Today and Sunday the people I were doing the video for showed up 2 hours late and 90 minutes late today. sad

Today I just left and said fuck it. Find someone else to your video.

I think it depends on whether you expect the 'bad guy' to be armed or with several other bad guys. One wanna be bad dude with baseball bat is not likely to still be a threat after two rounds have hit or come near.

Most likely, one guy. And I don't know what to expect. He's not allowed to own firearms now. Not that that stops someone determined really. But I'm talking immediate threat here. You never know what might come along. And really, he doesn't have much in the balls department. I think one well placed shot will have him shitting his pants.
