69 y.o. widow in Alabama catches guy climbing into her house where he removed window air conditioner. At 3 a.m. She fires three shots from snubby, intruder shows up at local hospital with belly wound, police apprehend him there.
Go Grams!
Picture of her and her gun at the link. Can anyone ID the snubby? Looks like it has a few years on it too.

Guns are like parachutes, if your ever in a situation that you need one and you dont have one, you'll probably never need one again.

Not everyone can afford Glocks, Colts, or S&W's. Looks like it worked for her.
