My wife doesn't mind shooting, she actually fired a 12ga and it made her step back but she giggled, which is a good response. I chose a 22 for her because of weight, ammo size and weight, and also price. Granted, ammo availability is an issue, but I've got a decent stash in her BoB. Jontte, the thing is a lot of fun to shoot so I would definitely look at getting the Tapco if you do get a 10/22. The magazine restriction is a real bummer! I love tearing up a stack of cans with the 25 round mags, you just shoot and shoot and shoot. On that note, though, out of our 2 Ruger BX-25 mags, one doesn't feed correctly. I think it's an issue with the spring but I already took it apart to clean it and check for snags and it didn't help. I tend to want to go with brand name over the cheaper but since Ruger is one for two on the mags with me, I'll probably be trying a Butler Creek next. From what I read, you need to be sure you get a magazine with steel feed lips and not polymer or plastic.
On the Dr Pepper note, my wife and are keeping a lot of carbonated water in our food stash. We plan on trying to make soda substitutes with various stores sweeteners and fruits. I figure we'll have plenty of time to experiment in a SHTF scenario.
