All I knew, before reading this thread and link above, was that he used a Glock.
I think once this is over, Glock should hire the young man.
This event has prompted me to get off my behind, get a family membership at the indoor gun range, and begin practicing once a week. I took my wife over there Friday and was able to iron the "recoil anticipation" out of her she'd had the last two range trips. She now hits point-of-aim with my .22 Buckmark at 5 yards.
This isn't much but it's a start. She had only shot airguns before we got married.
I've decided to iron the bugs out of my full-sized 1911 .45 ACP and once I am confident with her, order a holster. Bigger is better when it comes to shooting at any distance.
I've also written a thank you letter to the hero and included a cover letter to the police chief. Hopefully he'll forward the letter for me. I've done this once before for a much less-known hero and in that case, the sheriff called me directly to advise he was sending the letter.
Virtually everyone I talk with that's remotely into self defense knows of this man's exploit. Other forums are discussion an "Eli Drill."
As to this thread, I'd love to know the model number of Glock, holster type and maker, and ammo weight and maker he used.
