Ever looked down the business end of a .38?

I did. Years ago, as a bank branch manager, a guy high on something walked in, got about two steps into the branch, yanked a ski mask over his face, and waved a cheap .38. I can't tell you what he looked like, but 20 years later I can still describe that gun ... a cheap .38 with plastic pearl grips. I started to reach for the alarm button under my desk and he pointed taht sumbitch right at me and said "BACK UP!" So I did.

He got a small (relatively speaking) amount of cash, including the bill trap. The cops got him a few blocks down the road.

I still have the occasional nightmare.

1. nope, never had a gun pulled on me

I carry a .38, though (when I remember it) never pulled it on anybody either

[Iggo]

2. Yep.

I worked the graveyard shift at a 7-11 back when I was stupid.

3. Not exactly looked

but I did get shot in the ass w/ a .38 once.

I've looked down the barrel of a .45 though

4. I don't know what kind of gun it was

I was carjacked at gunpoint by a 12 y.o. and his 16 y.o. cohorts. I still have a hard time looking at guns. Unfortunately, it's necessary for me to be around LEOs at times.
