Each to their own though Obviously people with masks running up on you is a different situation then if they come around a corner and have the gun in your face before you can react. I was just saying that I've never been in the situation where I had a gun, knew I was about to have a gun in my face in a few seconds, and had to make a decision. I've only pulled my gun out once, but I didn't point it at anyone. I was walking through the center of an apartment complex when I heard a teenager yell, "There's a white boy, get your guns." I looked over and heard another kid repeat the same thing as they started scrambling around. I went into the building where I had the delivery and collected the money. I pulled out my gun, put my hand inside the delivery bag so nobody could see it, walked out the back entrance of the building, and took the long way around the perimeter of the complex back to my car. It was dusk time, but I could make out a group of kids standing in the middle of the complex. Don't think they actually were going to threaten me with guns as people attempting to scare me for sport happened from time to time, but I wasn't 100% sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
