Pretty good shooting. I thought it was interesting that the guy ran away with two shots in the chest. I live very close to where this happened. A few years ago it would have been very unlikely that something like this would happen in this area. Things change. I carry when I walk my dog.

A pistol that can be fired (repeatedly) from inside a pocket, something to consider for CCW

It was then the victim managed to grab his own pistol, in a jacket pocket. The victim shot the gun, while still in his pocket, and hit the suspect in the chest.

The advantage of a small, lightweight, hammerless revolver for concealed carry. (Smith and Wesson Model 642, for instance)

Sounds like a tragic ending. The guy is probably going to have to replace a favorite jacket.
