I was just held up at gunpoint #1

2 dudes with masks on jumped out of some bushes when they saw I had a pistol in my holster and told me to freeze while one went behind me and disarmed me, I was waiting eyes closed to get shot, but it never came, and they ran off
I'm still kind of in panic mode right now, pissed they took my Western Arms 1911 pistol
I just need to vent or something

What? No, I think what he is saying is they were intending to hold him up, then once they jumped out they spotted that he was armed and freaked out a bit, told him to freeze and took his sidearm.

At first I thought this was some weird Bump from that other thread. But sadly this is a completely different incident.

They held you up, just to take your gun?

Glad you're okay.

Yup.

So the pistol is all they took? You sure they weren't watching you from before and were after the gun from the beginning?

Yeah it's legal, at least in quite a few states. I don't think having any concealed weapon is legal though, unless you have some kind of special permit. May be wrong on that though.

I too was held at gunpoint by some young thugs a couple weeks ago. Should I have created a thread so we can keep track of it? :O

I live in Venezuela, this is sadly normal.

Permit you're talking about is conceal and carry, it's legal in some states.

What's odd is did the people that held you at gunpoint OP ask for your wallet or anything else? What firearm did they have?

Yeah you guys are right I should have just left my gun in the car so I could have ran faster to base with the flag
I bet they wouldn't have even been able to shoot me if I was running at max speed, much less try to get a safety kill by stopping me
I'll try that next time

The way things are going in AZ, I think it might be illegal to not to have a concealed pistol pretty soon.
