Alligator Bliss

[Casey 65]

This is a story of self-control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headed woman with a small pistol against a fierce predator:

While out walking along the edge of a bayou just below Houma, La., with my soon to be ex-husband discussing property settlement and other divorce issues, we were surprised by a huge, 12-foot alligator suddenly emerging from the murky water and charging right at us.

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 kneecap 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.
