    I have a hard time believing that a ruger p95 malfunctioned. I've never heard of one failing to deliver it's payload. I have about 10k rounds through my p89 and it has never once failed me. I would say the more likely case is bad ammo than a bad gun.

    Yes, but you probably don't hold it with a limp wrist and sideways.

    A Florida dad shot his daughter*s abusive ex-boyfriend dead after the man allegedly assaulted her in her apartment * then came back for more, according to police. Gainesville police officers responded to a domestic dispute at the Polos Apartments complex on Saturday and determined the unidentified ex-boyfriend had been inside the woman*s apartment and *physically assaulted her,* a police statement said.

    The woman*s father also came to the apartment in the aftermath, police said. About 30 minutes after police took a report for the alleged domestic dispute, the ex came back and *made entry,* according to police.

    This time, however, her father shot the suspect once in the chest with a handgun, according to police.

    Three teens * eventually identified as Isaiah Reid, Jaime Hernandez, and Brandon Gresham, according to WMAZ * lost their lives when they donned masks and fired at a homeowner during an attempted robbery. While most can understand why a homeowner would return fire after a group of masked young men shot at him, relatives of the boys were quick to come forward to say *these little teens* didn*t deserve it.

    According to the Rockdale County Sheriff*s office, the two 16-year-olds and a 15-year-old, wearing masks, attempted to rob three residents in the front yard of a Conyers, Georgia home at 4 am on a Monday morning. After approaching the home on White Oak Court, one of the teens brandished and fired a handgun. A resident returned fire, hitting all three suspects. None of the victims of the attempted robbery were injured, but all three teens died * one at the scene and the other two at a local hospital.
