Woman stops grizzly attack

Woman Stops Grizzly Attack With 25 Caliber Pistol ! This is a story of self-control and marksmanship with an "itsy bitsy shooter" by a woman facing a fierce predator. What is the smallest caliber you trust to protect yourself?
Here's her story:
While out hiking in Alberta Canada with my husband we were surprised by a huge grizzly bear charging at us from out of nowhere. She must have been protecting her cubs because she was extremely aggressive.
If I had not had my little Beretta Jetfire with me I would not be here today!
Just one shot to my husband's knee cap was all it took.
The bear got him and I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace.

It's one of the best pistols in my collection.

One guy says to the other. "What should we do if we see a bear?" "Run like hell", says the other guy. "Are You nuts ? You can't outrun a bear." "I don't have to outrun the bear. I just gotta outrun YOU!"
