Once the thug pointed the gun and said “You’re gonna die”, both thugs life were forfeited.

NOT GUILTY!

Maybe the cops don’t want any more “protests” at their stations or Police HQ. Sounds like a racially-charged situation, that someone who lives in OKC could help us to sort out.

Any OKC area Freepers about?

He was lucky the perps were bad shots. With a .45 close at hand it would not have been necessary to depend on a mouse gun.

"With a .45 close at hand it would not have been necessary to depend on a mouse gun."

If you had 3" .410 00 buckshot in it, you wouldn't even have to depend on aim. Thanks to the rifling, the way a Judge spins the shot, you get a fairly wide spread at close range. It's big for a CC weapon, but man what a punch!

>>>> With a .45 close at hand it would not have been necessary to depend on a mouse gun. <<<<<<

His “Judge” .45/.410 was under the counter, close at hand.

His Kel-Tec 3AT was in his pocket, even closer at hand.

This matter of convenience versus firepower is the whole point.

One cannot easily carry a Judge or S&W Model 29 or a 1911 while in the Safeway.

But one can most definitely carry an unobtrusive Kel-Tec .380 and not even notice it.

Nice little pocket gun. I’m going to have to get me one

Just be sure to keep in mind that .380 ammo is nearly impossible to find, and that trend may continue for awhile. A compact 9mm, .38, or .40 may be a better choice, just sayin'....

And at the end of the day, the Kel-Tec .380 did the job just fine. Pharmacists is alive. Coworkers are alive. Thug isn't doing so well.

Yeah, I've grown tired of thug culture made up of "gangstaz" who need to "keep it real" by sticking guns in the faces of honest, hard-working people.

I saw an update on the local news. Police have finished their investigation and forwarded to DA, no charges will be filed. Family is still crying that “they family member didn't has to be put in the ground.”

Yesterday, my husband & I were at one of our rentals making repairs and cleaning. We went to sit on the front steps, next door this black woman came out of her duplex and said "ain't it a terrible thing of that poor 16 yr old getting killed, his father lives just down the street" We could see the duplex his father lived in, it is a known drug house.

My husband told her he would have done the same thing, that boy was doing no good and he would shoot first ask questions later.

The woman said, yesssuh, that for suh. These duplexes were great when we bought them, now has turned into a ghetto, and we can't get rid of them.

This morning, there were cops in the neighborhood, never saw what they netted. lol , but all the blacks were hanging outside of their duplexes all over the street. Boy can they hangout like no one else, rofl.

If you had 3" .410 00 buckshot in it

I thought you couldn't put 3" .410 shells in a Judge... thought it had to be 2.5" .410 shells. (?)

Wish I could FIND .410 00 buck for my Judge.

I've got a 9mm (a Glock 19). I need something pocket-sized. I understand that Kel-Tec makes a similarly-sized pocket gun in 9mm, but I've read that many shooters think 9mm is too powerful for the gun.

You're right about scarcity of .380 ammo. I went with a friend to a local gun store today so he could buy some .380 cartridges. They would only allow him to purchase two 20 round boxes of Speer Gold Dot. They didn't have any less expensive range ammo in that caliber.

I picked up another 100 rounds of 9mm range ammo at the same time.

Do you have this?

I have lasers on both of my carry guns.

I do on my Smith & Wesson. I wish they'd make one for a Walther PPS. I love the CT dvd, they send you. It would be so awesome to go train at Swanson Tactical, or wherever they filmed the dvd.

Cleta Jennings said that she’s certain that her son didn’t plan to rob Reliable Pharmacy. She said he may have become involved with the wrong crowd. said Parker’s sister, Brittany Baldwin. “My brother didn’t have intentions of robbing that store.”

Interesting how all three family members have different last names.

The first models were only the 2.5”, but Taurus has since come out with a 3” magnum version of the Judge. I just wish they would bring back the 4” barrel model.

She said Parker, 16, loved to play basketball and draw pictures. She said she didn’t care that Ensland said he didn’t mean to kill anyone because his actions took away a loving boy.

___________________

Yeah, right. He should have stuck to ‘drawing pictures’ and ‘playing basketball’ instead of holding up drug stores and threatening people’s lives.
One less criminal and welfare recipient on the street.
