These guys say 2.5 million times a year, crime is prevented because of a private gun -- well, they referred to it as "defensive gun use." That seems high to me. That would mean that every year, about 1 out of every 100 Americans has such an experience.

I've not run into anywhere near that common of an incidence of that.
