Larry Ohlendorf sucked me in with this one

(As a preface, I mentioned on this blog with my concealed carry permit I would be carrying a .25 and I had been told I needed something larger. Larry sent me this to show I would be fine with a .25)

Woman Stops Grizzly Attack With .25 Caliber Pistol
 
This is a story of self control and marksmanship.  A woman survived a grizzly bear attack with one well placed shot from her itsy bitsy .25 caliber Beretta Jetfire.
                           
These are her own words.:


While out hiking in Alberta Canada with my boyfriend, we were surprised when a huge grizzly bear came charging at us out of nowhere.  She must have been protecting her cubs because she was extremely aggressive.
If I had not had my little Beretta Jetfire I would not be here today!  I yanked it out of my purse and fired one shot.  It hit my boyfriend in his kneecap and the bear caught him easily. While the grizzly mauled the poor cripple, I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace.      I love that pistol.  I'll find other boyfriends.
