Guy opens fire on an outdoor party - a woman at the event who was carrying dropped him right there. Yikes. You're unlikely to see this story on CNN or MSNBC, etc.... but DGU's really DO need to be part of the national conversation!

Nope.  Nor will they cover the THOUSANDS of other times each and every year that defensive gun use occurs.  And THOUSANDS of times per year is at the low end if the estimates.

I've discussed it in the past in various threads but if you aren't familiar with how often firearms are used defensively each and every year then please do a little "googlefu" to look into it.

The low end estimates are DGU (Defensive Gun Use) is at least equal to the estimate of criminal usage.  At the higher end it's in the hundreds of thousands.  Real number is probably something the middle.

A very important point to keep in mind is that the vast majority of DGU (95+% or close to it) occurs without a shot ever having to be fired.

Restricting private gun ownership would create THOUSANDS of new victims each and every year.

Why isn't this in the national news cycle?

Woman credited with stopping mass shooting at apartment complex in West Virginia

Where are all the important details?  White Supremist?  Clean record?  Non-Binary Defender?  Gun Free Zone for the lawful?  Prius  parking lot rage?  Perhaps this doesn''t fit the narrative exactly? 

What will the RINOs and Democrats bent on curbing liberty in this nation, Manchin or Graham come to mind, or say irrelevant and compromised Wayne LaPierre or even "Lets Ban Bump Stocks" Trump all have to say in the coming hours?

Doesn't surprise me that the story is from West Virginia.

EVERYONE carries in WV!!!!

I was there this past weekend to help my wife's family with a move and I saw LOTS of people (men, women, old, young...) with guns printing through their clothes.

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
