I have a 22TCM and wouldn't hesitate to use it for defense. It will penetrate level 2 body armor. Similar ballistics to the FN57 and the secret service doesn't seem to have a problem with small bullets.
Another plus is it comes in a 1911

Yeah, but the 22 TCM (40 grain bullet at 2000 fps from a centerfire round in a 1911 platform) bears NO resemblance to a 22 Mag rimfire in a single action platform w/ a <2" barrel.
