Have YOU ever had to use your concealed pistol in self defense?
Title says it all; have you ever had to use your concealed pistol in a self defense situation? When I say use, I mean this- you were forced to draw your weapon in a self defense situation, whether or not you were forced to fire is a different story. I am curios because I have a few friends who were robbed in Philadelphia, if they had a firearm on them I'm sure the situation would have been ended quite differently.

Would you like a whole boatload of NO's, or rather just have people that have had to? 99.9% of the people here would probably be a No...

Re: Have YOU ever had to use your concealed pistol in self defense?
hmmmm...not sure i know the answer to that. People "use" their concealed pistols everyday. By "using" i mean, carrying it concealed to be able to protect themselves. I dont know people would really want to share everything you are asking for...but i may be wrong.

Re: Have YOU ever had to use your concealed pistol in self defense?
I had one minor incident maybe 4 years ago. I apparently cut someone off changing lanes. He was very irate and eventually got out of his car, dug around under his seat and came running up along side of the concrete media barrier towards my work van window with a cylindrical, black object in his hand. I was trapped by cars in front and to my right at a stop light.
I drew a PPK/S from a SmartCarry holster and placed it on my belly, watching this angry young guy charging towards me. He stopped short when he saw my weapon, now up on my chest, he flicked open an ASP (?) and ran back to his buddies in the car.
He followed me into Home Cheapo, but I turned off onto a side road assuming he was going to continue the attack. (I didn't want innocents hurt.)
He parked at the entrance to the side road and waited for me and called 911 to report a " man with a gun". I did not call, as I should have as the victim.
The police stopped me, blocking the lane of the main road, I followed the officer's instructions. The "punk" stopped his Jeep to laugh and I pointed him out the the now 9 or 10 cops surrounding me, saying "Officer, there is the guy who pulled a weapon on me."
They were asked to exit their vehicle and kneel on the sidewalk with their hands behind their heads, I was sitting in the back of a patrol car. The LEO's searched his vehicle and arrested him for having an illegal weapon/instrument (?) of crime, the ASP, also for aggravated assault.
A limo driver stopped and corroborated my story.
I had my pistol and ammo returned and was allowed to go on my way after filing a "victim's report".Veritas Vos Liberat

That's too awesome!
