It happens but even the six stores a month in American Rifleman aren't statistically significant, when compared to the number of "bad person kills less bad/good person" numbers or "accidental shooting death" numbers.

> in 2020, there have been unintentional shootings by over 220 children. This has resulted in 92 deaths and 135 injuries

Math is hard...

You should look up the numbers of yearly defensive gun uses in the United States. The CDC reports 60,000 to 2.5 million defensive gun uses each year
