True, but the previous governor, Rick Perry, did exactly what was stated in the story. I'm not sure that his weapon was state issued, though.

Perry’s accomplishment was pretty close to the story, but the pistol was his own, a Ruger LCP in .380 ACP. Ruger issued a “coyote special” version to commemorate the event.
