We talk/write so much about so many different holsters to carry concealed, so many different training techniques for self defense, etc. etc....
There seems to be an army of well trained, armed, and ready gun owners here in the USA, which gives me comfort if things dramatically change and this country is ever seriously attacked.
Putting all wild scenarios and paranoia aside...
Have you or someone very close to you ever had to use a handgun or other firearm for self-defense?
If so, please share the situation if you comfortable with doing so.
(By "use it" I mean unholstering it, showing it, referring to it, etc. not necessarily pulling the trigger. I'm pretty sure not many who have actually pulled the trigger would care to share anything about it here.)
Why am I asking....
1. Desire to learn from others' experiences
2. Considering getting CHL and wondering if it is really worth the responsibility, the hassle, and the cost.
3. Curiosity
