Have to say, it is convenient, avoids having to splatter your brains all over the place and then leaving that for somebody else to have to clean up, on the other hand, if it's hugely expensive, that seems a waste when a bullet is $1.00

Well, I'd use the .357 magnum, might as well go out with style.

Dang, 357mag ammo is expensive, but still isn't a buck a round. That's cray.

Nanny state even cleans your wallet out when you are trying to kill yourself to escape.

Yep, everything is much more expensive in Canada, and they don't sell ammo at Walmart here, and $1.00 CAD is only $0.70 USD.

Handguns are also restricted here, so it's a tiny market with no volume discounts.

LOL, you driving down to the hood before you off yourself??


Why not just put a .22LR through your eyeball while shooting at beer cans?

What about 22 ammo? I pick these up when they go on sale at Walmart.

Nah, don't shoot yourself in the eye, guy, that could ricochet off target and just go round the outside. My buddy was shot in the head point blank with 7.62x39mm, and didn't go through, it rode around his skull under his scalp and lodged in his ear. You gotta get that angle right. You got through the top of the mouth so it has nowhere else to go.
