22 Magnum for SELF DEFENSE?!?!? Walther WMP.
The Walther WMP in .22 Magnum is reviewed for self-defense viability. While offering low recoil and high capacity, it faces reliability challenges, especially with optics, and high ammunition costs compared to 9mm. Ballistic tests show lethal penetration and expansion, but it's not a primary recommendation. The pistol features easy magazine loading and unique ergonomics, but concerns exist about its polymer buffer's long-term durability.
