A disabled veteran used a World War II era gun to shoot an intruder who kicked in his door over the weekend. Lloyd Macarty was a Marine, and his wife says he was steady as a rock when he got his gun and fired it just as the door came open.

Nope...From the article
." I have a .32 automatic pistol dad sent me back in 1948. It's really old, but it worked good."

WWII Pistol
ALERT ALERT !!!
.32
automatic pistol
WW2 pistol ... Military weapons ??? those shoot real bullets ...... those shouldn't be in the hands of the general public, they need to ban those military assault .32 pistols ... it's an old gun lacking drop safeties and other modern safeties, that needs to go to a "buy back" program

See! It's all about shot placement. He didn't need a real gun.
