Can you explain? Cause I know for sure I don't have $50k to spend on legal fees.

If a person is on trial for shooting someone, the charge is likely to be murder, or attempted murder. Chances are, a responsible gun owner is not going to qualify for public defender, so he/she will be hiring a private lawyer.
A murder trial trial is very involved and can take a year or two to get to trial.
For a few reference points:
8 hours x $200 = $1600
40 hours x $200/hr = $8,000
Assume a 40 hour work week (which is light for a lawyer).
An attorney defending a responsible gun owner in a murder trial can easily spend more than 6 weeks of time on a trial.
You'd probably also have to hire an expert or two as well ($5k-$10k).
