Well I wouldn't bring a bolt action .22 to a gun fight but I would be happy with an AR-15. Neither of the two guns have the knock down power for someone 250lbs + but would want the larger round of the 9mm. If I have to shoot I don't want to take any chances of needing 3-4 rouns to stop someone, 1 shot and he stops with a, .40 cal. or .45 in most instances.
