I did a lot of research to using firearms to CTB some years back when I had a bunch of guns available, figured I'd post it here.
First off, do not use a pistol like you see in the movies. Even if it's a large caliber like a .45 to the head, there is a large chance that you can end up severely maimed and still not dead. Impressively and frustratingly, the brain is surprisingly resilient, but you end up with brain damage.
If you use a pistol to try to shoot, you have a large chance of missing as well and fucking yourself up even more.
Right as you pull the trigger, often SI kicks in and messes with your aim.
If you have to use a gun, the very best thing to use would be a 12 gauge shotgun with something like buckshot or even a hollow point slug. Do not use bird shot, it doesn't pack enough punch. Don't put the gun under your chin, as you have a high likelihood of blowing your face off and still living.
Rather, put the barrel into your mouth, aimed 90 degrees. The goal is to take out the brainstem, which is responsible for controlling your heart and vital organs.
Overall, I don't recommend firearms, but if you must, this would be the best method.
