Always wondered this, and wondered if anyone had any experience.
SCENARIO:
You're walking back to your car after a night out in the city with your wife/girlfriend (and you're carrying concealed). Bad guy steps out of alley in front of you with knife and demands money. You brandish firearm and guy's eyes go huge and takes off. No justification for discharge of firearm, guy runs like devil on his tail.
As you are approaching car, you hear running feet behind you and as you turn around, you are tackled by same guy who starts groping for where you hid your gun (as he saw you pull it earlier).
OK
This is little far-fetched, but wonder how realistic this could be? Are we to assume that baddies like easy targets and won't bother if there is chance they could get hurt? Or would guy think 'Man, I can follow this guy and if he gives me half a chance I got me a free gun!'
Anybody fill me in on your procedures after a non-lethal confrontation? I'm sure the adrenalin is pumping and need time to collect thoughts. Thats the part that gets to me, I've just shown that I have a gun - am I clear or do I have to watch out even more?
Thanks!
