A board member of my IDPA CLUB is also an Elder in my church. He carries a concealed 1911 during the service and sits at the front of the Sanctuary near the Pastor & Choir. I carry my Sig P226 with 17+1 and a spare mag concealed and sit at the rear of the Sanctuary during the main morning service. I figure that in the age of terror where the enemy is ISLAM, it will make all kinds of sense for the enemy to strike directly at the heart of what they see as infidel detractors of Islam: Jewish and Christian houses of worship. That's my reason. I'm a Sheepdog by nature. But besides being prepped for a terror issue, it also serves to deal with the lone gunman whacko. I recall the well publicized event in South Africa back in the late 80's or early 90's where there was a mass terror attack using grenades and AK's. There was a lone parishioner who was able to bring his 38sp snubnose into the action and get a few shots off. HE wasn't carrying any spare ammo and his accuracy wasn't good enough due to the close range nature of both his weapon and his experience. I used to carry a Smith & Wesson M642 snubbie and for the reasons above switched to a more serious implement of defense. It's my new motto: Serious guns for serious times.

Glad she was there. I just heard on Fox that she shot him twice - after the first shot he went to reach for a grenade or bomb (they weren’t sure what it was) and she warned him not to do it and then shot him again.
