The best form of protection is to ban anyone from owning a gun, then you definitely won't get shot - but hey, I'm not an American so I don't understand why everyone needs a gun, even after the shootings in Auora, which, rather perversely, have increased the number of gun sales in America. But what do I know, I'm not an American.
Single shot 22 LR
Yes
1. Take it to a gunsmith and have it checked out. 2. If the gun is marked .22 LR than it is designed for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. If the gun is in good condition, then that is the cartridge that the gun can shoot. Have fun.
That all depends on which gun. A good .22 rifle may cost $150-200. A good pump shotgun- $250-350. A good .22 target pistol- about $350-400. But there are .22 rifles, shotguns and pistols that can sell for thousands of dollars.
i have had one for 15 years... good gun low maintenance, not a long distance sniper or nothing like that. Just a good saddle gun, protection against for example a charging bear or cougar and home protection
Find a good gun smith.
A single shot .22 rifle. Bolt action
Single shot 22 rifle. thanks i was thinking about a .243 but a .22 is a good idea
A pellet gun is not adequate for protection, and will get you arrested.

Spelled squirrel, and a .22 rifle is the firearm of choice for them.
