If its all metal... no worries... you can use it as a club until you get ammo. You can still do real damage!!!

Getting the ammo is now (for a while anyway) is solved.

The TCM has a flash/bang (more of a boom) comparable to a .44 magnum. Should I shoot and miss the perp, I can simply search for the "blind/deaf" guy (with brown stained trousers) and turn him over to the authorities. The TCM is simply amazing and captures the immediate attention of those nearby.

As more of us age, there might be more than one person fitting that description.

It's our kids who push us into geezerdom, but we do get our revenge with our gradchildren. Going down to Virginia in the morning to see our latest grandbabies.
