Man this thread blew up.
My wife's grandma would probably be dead right now if not for her gun (or the threat of her gun). A couple years ago when she was 80 some guy broke into her house while she was home. He got into the back door which was her laundry room. The door between the laundry room and kitchen was a cheap wood panel door that was closed but not locked. She had seen this guy peeping the neighbors' house so she was kind of ready. Anyway she heard him on the other side of the door and called out "you come through this 2nd door imma shoot ya" and he left.
She does have a gun but isn't mobile enough to get it in time and her hands are so gnarly that she couldn't shoot it at all. She's an East Texas woman though so she's kind of a badass.
If he came into her house he could have just pushed her over and her neck and/or hip probably would have broken (again) and she may have been left to die while he robbed her. She lives alone pretty far away from the rest of the family.
