...it's not like .32ACP is the Hammer of Thor, either. From Tam commenting on Caleb's new gun.
I dunno. If you think about it, most people consider the 9mm to be adequate. The .380 is just a short 9mm, so its gotta be dang close, right? The .32 is just an itty bit smaller than the .380, so there can't be that much difference. If you follow that "logic", then you might come to the conclusion that the .25 is sorta-kinda-almost adequate.
Besides, it was designed by Saint John Moses Browning, so it can't be a bad thing, right?!?
Regardless of what .45ACP bigot Jeff Cooper says about the cartridge, a .25ACP in your hand is better than a .50AE in your safe.
We hear of an unfortunate woman who, during an nighttime asthma attack, confused the small handgun she kept under her pillow with an asthma inhaler and proceeded to relieve her symptoms. It was not a fatal mistake, partly because she used a 25 ACP, which everyone knows is not sufficient to clear sinuses. and As we used to teach in the spook business, carry a 25 if it makes you feel good, but do not ever load it. If you load it you may shoot it. If you shoot it you may hit somebody, and if you hit somebody - and he finds out about it - he may be very angry with you. (from Jeff's Commentaries)
