Let's say she had a gun in a holster tucked in her pants. She gets knocked down to the ground from behind, breaks a hip (I believe), laying on the ground with a broken hip and pulls out her pistol and plugs a running perp many yards away? Not going to happen, dude.

Let's also say "Granny" was a WAC during the Korean War. All she needs for a CCL is her DD214, fingerprinting, and pay about $100. No training or test or shooting skill required at all for a veteran even though military service might have been 70 years ago.

Anyhow, enjoy packing your gun in legal places.
