My buddy shot a guy. - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Had an irate customer pull a gun on him. My buddy took one in the abdomen, but returned fire and landed 3 shots. He didn't know he was shot when he returned fire.

We took our CCW class together and I remember him with an HK USP .40. I was shocked when he told me he shot the guy with a P22. He's lucky to be alive. The other guy may or not make it. Ill get more info tmrw.

The cops said he was lucky he was packin'. Of course they took his gun though. Cleveland is a b!tch about giving guns back, but our new revisions to the ccw law will change that soon.

The good guy gets to go home to his wife and kids, bad guy may or may not make it.

I hope this ends well.

Scary event. I hope your buddy recovers quickly.

My prayers for your friend's speedy recovery. Where was he at? Or should I check the local news?

I'm glad he's okay, and hope one of the .22s did some good work on the guy who shot him.

Three shots of 22 might kill the guy?

This is why I feel comfortable carrying 9mm. It's not exactly a 44 mag barnstormer, but it's probably fine until I come across a grizzle bear or linebacker.

thats great, but i wouldn't post anything about it online until it was through the courts, but thats just me...

My best wishes to your friend...Your buddy was very fortunate.

P22 isn't the most reliable handgun from what I've heard, and a .22LR on top of that.

Glad your friend is ok minus the gunshot wound. Hope it all works out well for him.
