What happened when 2 armed
thugs entered his local barbershop looking for easy targets & fast cash...
Today I want to tell you the terrifying true story of USCCA Member David Jackson...
A man who was forced to use his firearm to defend his family, who quite frankly, are the very reason he carries his gun in the first place.
You see, it all happened on a normal day at Next Step Barbershop in South Carolina...
Nothing seemed different about that day to David...
Except for the fact that he was in a rush and by chance, he went to the second barber chair instead of his usual 1st.
Shortly after sitting down, 2 masked men walked in, one with a long gun and the other with a pistol...
Time slowed down for David, and the world got quiet as he watched the chaos erupt...
His girlfriend grabbed their children, pulling them in close...
David pleaded with the robbers not to shoot for
the sake of his kids who were watching in horror just a few feet away...
But the gunmen advanced, demanding everyone turn over their money and valuables.
One of them knocked the barber down and shoved the barrel end of his shotgun up against his
head...
David was convinced the armed thug would shoot him right then and there–with his 3 kids watching.
As the gunman collecting valuables got closer, David was forced to make a split second decision...
Should he draw his firearm even though he was outnumbered 2 to 1...?
David looked at his family–frozen in terror–and knew what he had to do...
He stopped the approaching gunman and directed him towards his coat lying on a nearby seat to avoid being
patted down...
And when the gunman walked away David took his one opportunity to save his family:
He drew his gun and fired.
The smell of
gunsmoke filled the air...
...and the wounded gunmen fled out the back door, collapsing into a pool of red in the street.
Startled, the 2nd gunman fled, with David's next shot missing him by an inch, maybe
two...
David called 911 and the police brought him in for questioning...
Upon arrival at the police station, David used his one phone call to contact the USCCA Critical Response Team...
He was instantly connected with a team member who provided him with all of the resources and information he needed to get home to his family...
And got him one of the best self-defense attorneys in the state of South Carolina.
Needless to say, the USCCA helped ease David's nerves and
walked him through the entire process step-by-step, making his experience as comfortable and painless as possible.
David was not charged with any crime.
