SHTF stands for Shit Hits The Fan. You are as you are but with access to the sidearm of your choice. .22 doens't have much stopping power and is hard to find nowadays. If you want a gun that shoots like a .22 but is a 9mm, I would recommend the Jericho 941.

Here in Georgia its back to the point where we can buy a shit ton of everything. Except .22 most of the time.
