Florida woman stops alligator
attack using a small Beretta
pistol

This is a story of self-control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headedwoman
with a small pistol against a fierce predator. What is
the smallest caliber that you would trust to protect
yourself? A Beretta Jetfire testimonial.... 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."

LMFAO!!! I've heard variations on that story. One involves bear

Bla bla bla. "For safety," always hike with a friend, and take a tiny pocket pistol. In case of bear attack shoot the friend on one knee and then run

45-70, lever action. 400 grains should be sufficient for alligators.

Jeez, did you miss the joke.

just turn the gator over on its belly , and rub, it will go directly to sleep. i know, she said its a 12 footer. just harder to turn over. //////// BUT, that does not help if impending divorce looms overhead!???
Southern logic!????? ha ( i am Southern) ( roots anyway) ( not like the movie Roots, just regular roots).......

Variation. Two guys walking in the woods come upon a bear about to charge them. One guy says to the other, what are we gonna do? Other guy says run. First guy says we can't out run a bear. Other guy says I don't have to, I just have to out run you.
