Any idiot can kill himself doing stupid things with a gun.
BUT....
It takes a WHOLE SPECIAL BREED of stupid AND unlucky to manage to kill yourself with a .25 auto! :doh
I mean hell those things are barely fit for shooting mice.
I started to write that just buying a .25 means he's stupid, but then remembered my wife bought a little really compact and solid little 1950s .25 because "its cute." Actually, most compacts used to be smaller (but heavier) than they are now. A .25 isn't much, but its better than nothing. And she is an amazingly skilled shot. And it is sort of a cute little gun at that. Solid nickel with white ivory grips. So small a person wouldn't see it in my hand.
I'll tell you what is ridiculous. Those little Charter Arms single action .22 mini revolvers. Time how long it takes to **** it after shooting the first round - and measure the accuracy at 10 feet with it's -1 inch barrel. Those are absurd. I'd rather just have a brick to throw at the other person.
