On the .25, he minces no words:
"This is a 1906 design that should never have happened. It is adapted to cheap, blow-back pocket pistols which are useful only as threats. Anyone shot with this cartridge is apt to become emotional and resort to violence."
Nor does he pull any punches describing the various .32 revolver cartridges as of 1965:
"Except for the .32 Smith and Wesson Long, which is an accurate light target load, these rounds are a complete waste of time. These are the cartridges for the bureau-drawer-specials with which badly trained children have accidents."
And of the .380 ACP:
"If one simply had to have a minimum pistol for purposes of concealment, a .380 with this load (the Shooting Associates 100-grain bullet at 925) might do. I wouldn't stake my own life on it, but then I don't ride on bald tires, while many do."
He had a way with words didn't he?
