Florida Woman Stops Gator Attack with Small Calibre 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 calibre that you would trust to protect yourself? A Beretta Jetfire testimonial.
Here is her story in her own words:
"While out walking along the edge of a bayou just outside of Fort Lauderdale in alligator alley with my soon to be ex-husband discussing property
settlement and other divorce issues, we were surprised by a huge 12-ft. alligator 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 calibre pistol with me,
I would not be here today!
"Just one shot to my estranged husband's kneecap was all it took. The gator got him easily and I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace.
"It's one of the best pistols in my collection!
Plus the amount I saved in lawyer fees was incredible."
