I'm hoping to get a reference list of links to articles on events such as shootings stopped by good guys and gun owner victories. No discussion, just links and excerpts if need be.

There's a large number of such events mixed into the "Shooting Incidents in the News" thread...

Correct. Seeking a thread with only links to positive stories, discussion on them to remain in that thread.

Mas Ayoob has documented some in his American Handgunner column. Including one where a guy saved a cop
using a lot of ammo from "standard capacity magazines."

You might also check out The Best Defense by Robert A. Waters and Thank God I Had A Gun. by Chris Bird.

There is also a small book about a guy in South Africa who fought terrorists with AKs using a snubnose revolver.
The element of surprise worked for him as the attackers didn't expect resistance at a church. I can't recall the title
and the book has migrated out of the bookshelf near the computer.
