One of the shots hit the robbers gun and looked like the first shot got him in the upper chest or lower neck area, a good shoot for good guys. Could you imagine how loud that was for those two employees, one guy hit the floor, the other guy just kind of stepped to the side, seemed barely bothered and talking on a phone.

Wait a minute, is this real? Bad guy was shot 2 times and his gun hit once by a .45, shouldn't that have knocked him down? :saywhat:

Here is a pic of the bad guys gun, it was hit in the muzzle area and rendered useless, probably a good thing since it looked like he was still trying to use it.

Is it me or did the pharmacist draw on the badguy when the badguy already had his gun pointed at him? That worked out exactly as it was supposed to but the good Lord was looking out for the pharmacist that day.

Armchairing this, but I don't see anything wrong with the drawing or first shot, but I think he should have shot more rapidly to prevent the bad guy from getting one off. A lack of practice would be my guess. He was lucky that he hit the gun, otherwise he would be in the hospital. Awesome story, and glad it turned out ok.
