"I've run across shooting after shooting where the defender shot a violent aggressor with a .380 and did little to immediately stop his depredations. A good hollow point load in 9mm or .38 Special will, historically, end lethal assaults more quickly."

Agree with Defensive Arms since
the BG was shot they may not end
up pressing charges against him as they
will end up feeling he has suffered enough.
Good story though.
I love good news early in the morning, kind of like a breath of fresh air.

Good job to the CCer and the writer.

As well this and many other stories of same kind of throw cold water on the theory/idea that you can't beat a drawn weapon.
Very many people have and continue to do so. A little subterfuge may be involved in the way of playing meek and weak to buy a tactical and/or timing advantage, but it most definitely can be and is done.
