Everybody loves a good self-defense story with a happy ending, i.e. the good guy prevails and the bad guy loses. But there are some stories that – for one reason or another – seem to stand out above all the rest.

Here is a look at some of the most popular, most shared and most commented on defensive gun use stories published on Guns.com throughout 2013. And no, George Zimmerman didn’t make the list because, although he can’t seem to avoid media attention, the Trayvon Martin shooting occurred in 2012.

The suspect’s greediness turned out to be a fatal flaw when he returned inside a Bassfield, Mississippi, convenience store during a robbery in November.  He had already collected money from the register and shot the owner in the process, but decided to go back in for the remaining cash. Little did he know that in the moments while he was gone, the owner armed himself with a 9mm, then opened fired when the suspect returned, fatally shooting him more than 10 times.
