In a perfect world everybody would have a good quality firearm in a proven defensive caliber. But, this ain't a perfect world.
Coinneach is right. This woman didn't pick the gun. It was just what she had and it proved to be enough.
Glen Meyer is also right. Not everybody can afford a quality firearm. It amazes me how some of you go off on these cheap guns. Sure, you can buy a used Model 10 for about $125, but you can also buy a cheap .22 or .25 for about $70 or less. When you live on a tight budget that $55 difference is a whole lot of money.
Don't fall into the trap of judging others by your standards. Like it or not, these small cheap guns do have a place and they can save your life.
