My daughter is very proficient with any hand gun.
I'm no slouch either and have had and continue with professional tactical training.
I also practice presentation drills (drawing from the holster) live fire drills regularly.
I shoot informal USPSA competitions .
I'm a pretty fair pistolero...
I told you all that cause I want to reinforce my earlier point.
A gun won't protect you if some thug walks up behind you and hits you in the side of the head with a lead pipe while you're cleaning.
The most important thing we carry to defend ourselves is right between the our ears.
Use your brain and stay aware.
There's lots and lots of "little things" that add up to not becoming a victim.
side note for you wimmins that carry in your purse, if you carry it like most wimmins, it wouldn't be too difficult for some crackhEd to yank it off your shoulder and beat feet down the street or across the mall parking lot.
be aware and you tremendously decrease the odds of ever becoming a victim
