Good looking out.

Although as hard as it is to find 22lr nowadays, even a recall might not be enough for people to give back their ammo.
Your number one Option for Personal Security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.

Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.
