I'm not interested in tracking someone down to ask, and if we want to play that game I've been pretty busy investigating shootings...so if that gives me more insight into the world of people shooting than designing holsters or not is up to you to decide.
I would not carry a revolver of any kind with the justification of capacity. If I want capacity, I'll get a gun that plays to that strength...and for the record, I really like revolvers.
I would not carry a .22 magnum because "easier to control" with the existence of .38 wadcutters.
I would not carry a .22 magnum out of a short barrel, which I strongly suspect will not break a femur and I suspect will glance off a skull easier than the above mentioned wadcutter or a quality hollowpoint.
I would not rely on "eye socket shooting" as a realistic possibility in a gunfight, although in some situations it may be possible...there's a lot where it won't be, or not for long.
Can it work? Sure. Again, a starter pistol would work a significant amount of the time. I just question the justification behind it, and would recommend anyone who's not an epic eye socket shooter to stick with the .38 and up.
