Okay, real scenario, sorry to say.
Obviously I'm female, middle aged, not too athletic. Scenario is: in an office with no other colleagues in my suite except sometimes a tiny Buddhist woman, in a Class A office building with no security, me in my chair, intoxicated or agitated person on the couch right in front of me, 8 feet away, heavy glass coffee table between us, door to my left. Cut to, person behaving agitated and I can't talk him down. Is there any possible role for a fiream in this? No backstop. Can't carry on body at work but I can have one within reach of my hand loaded with whatever, frangibles, whatever. They WILL NOT expect me to be armed in any way.
Please skip any suggestions around "get another job", "find another career," "hire security guards," "get an attack dog in your office." Can't be done. Panic button is going in this week but that gives me maybe 10 minutes alone with BG. I'm will entertain any reasonable suggestion, including other weapon types and general non-weapon tactics. There are further limitations, but I don't want to overwhelm anyone with them because it's alot. Took floating some range guys a box each of sweet ammo to get them to not give up too quickly and really think yesterday. One came up with frangibles, the other said knife carry IWB.
