Defensive Gun Use by Armed Citizens
Help document cases where law abiding citizens have legally used guns to protect themselves, or to apprehend criminals in the act.   Please report any incident where the citizen had a gun, regardless of if it was actually fired, or mere presence of a gun thwarted the criminal act.

Sharing  your story today may save the life of someone else in the future by helping to protect the right to self defense.
