Headline: "Darwin woman stops crocodile attack with a small Beretta pistol."
This is a story of self-control and marksmanship by a brave, cool-headed
woman with a small pistol against a fierce predator.
What is the smallest caliber that you would trust to protect yourself?
Here is her story in her own words.................
"Always be prepared!!!"
"While out walking along the edge of a pond just outside of Gagudju Lodge
in Kakadu National Park with my soon to be ex-husband discussing property
settlement and other divorce issues, we were surprised by a huge 16 foot
crocodile which suddenly emerged from the murky water and began
charging us with its large jaws wide open. She must have been protecting
her nest because she was extremely aggressive.
If I had not had my little Beretta Jetfire .25 caliber pistol with me,
I would not be here today! Just one shot to my estranged husband's
knee cap was all it took. The croc got him easily and I was able to
escape by just walking away at a brisk pace.
That pistol saved my life and amount I saved in lawyer's fees was incredible."
