These posts are based on our Good Guy with a Gun calendar. Today’s post is essentially the same as the calendar version.

It was early on a Saturday morning — before 2 AM, so maybe a late Friday night instead — two men, aged 36 and 49, got into an argument at a gas station in Englewood on Chicago’s South Side.

It doesn’t matter what the argument was about, you shouldn’t do what the 36-year-old did: He got a gun out of his vehicle and fired at the 49-year-old.

The 49-year-old was a Concealed Carry License (CCL) holder. He was also a better shot: He returned fire, hitting the 36-year-old in the arm.

The 36-year-old went to the hospital in critical condition, and one suspects that he faced charges afterward. He should have left that gun in the car.
