A lot to share today — from new defensive gun use reports to my latest USPSA match footage.

First up, a 79-year-old Vietnam veteran defended himself against a naked attacker after a brutal assault left him with broken legs. In California, a man shot an intruder who was allegedly attacking a resident with a wooden pole, and NBA player Christian Wood reportedly used gunfire to scare off masked intruders at his Sherman Oaks home.

On a lighter note, I posted a new video showing all five of my stage runs from yesterday’s USPSA match — my fifth overall and first since September after dealing with a few injuries. It was also my first match drawing from concealment. I learned a ton, worked through a few malfunctions, and got some great stage advice from the match director afterward.
