It's Not Just the Gun . . .

Four would-be muggers tried to rob a man holding a child outside a McDonald's restaurant in Memphis, Tennessee. The father got to his handgun as he was fighting them off and wounded one before they all fled.(The story is here on Fox News.)

Note that the point here is not only that he was armed, but that he had the mindset to fight off four men in order to access his weapon. It takes a warrior mindset to reverse the momentum of an ambush.

As Jeff Cooper used to say, "It's not the gun, it's the spirit of the man behind it."
