Florida woman stops alligator attack with a small Beretta pistol.

This is a story of self-control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headed woman with a small pistol against a fierce predator.
She was asked, what is the smallest calibers that you would trust to protect yourself? A Beretta Jetfire, she answered! A nice testimonial for the Beretta Jetfire].
Here is her story in her own words:
"While out walking along the edge of a pond just outside of The Villages with my soon-to-be ex-husband discussing property settlement and other divorce issues, we were surprised by a huge 12-ft. alligator which suddenly emerged from the murky water and began charging us with its large jaws wide open. She must have been protecting her nest because she was extremely aggressive. If I had not had my little Beretta Jetfire .25 caliber pistol with me, I would not be here today! Just one shot to my estranged husband's knee cap was all it took. The 'gator got him easily and I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace. It's one of the best pistols in my collection! Plus the amount I saved in lawyer's fees was really incredible!"

You had me too - that was a good one! Reminds me of my dear, departed cousin, a former Villager, who said the best way to avoid a gator attack - outrun the person you're with :D

Ex-spousal abuse. Or soon to be ex-spousal abuse.
