Problem is that so few CCW shoots are even reported in the news. The one here last weekend ended in three hits and killed the bad guy. Not sure how many shots the good guy fired though.
There was a case about 40 yrs. ago in TX where a guy did shoot a bad guy across a large hwy. He was a hunter pulled over in a rest stop and saw a bad guy on top of a cop, shooting him in the head. The hunter took the perp out from well over 100 yds. IIRC, TX DPS gave him a gold plated 1911 as an award for it. Obviously, the hunter faced no threat, so probably wasn't too stressed. Still, I bet it gets the heart pumping to even aim a gun at another person, let alone watch that guy killing a cop in progress.
