Interesting unedited interview with a 70-year old gentleman who used a concealed pistol to defend himself against armed robbery, dispatching both of the thugs in the process. Very interesting to watch:

I got the link to this in the latest email from my buddy Ignatius Piazza. Once in a while he sends something that's not a 10-for-1 offer for training at Frontsight. If you are on their list, you know what I mean.

Jefferson County court records show that Springer [one of the robbers] was arrested May 23 on charges of trafficking in a controlled substance and tampering with physical evidence. He had been released on his own recognizance and had a court hearing set for June 16.

In May 2007, Springer was convicted of carrying a concealed deadly weapon and sentenced to 60 days in jail, which was conditionally discharged.

Excerpt:

The gun that one of two teens brandished when they were fatally shot during an apparent home invasion this week had been stolen from a Louisville Metro Police officer, police said.

Officer Phil Russell said the gun was stolen in 2006 from an officer's car or residence. He said he did not have further information about what type of weapon it was.
