Closest I've ever come to thinking I might need to use my carry...

[Old Fart]

I had people try to swamp me in my coleman canoe on the 4th of july at tenkiller.
.

I had one of those too.
Pretty nice little canoes.

The only problem with showing a firearm before you plan on using it in this situation is, you could have easily had 3 or 4 pointing back at you. Add alcohol to the situation and it could turn very ugly very quick.

How would this play any different if he had fired at the driver instead of just pointing at him as a warning?

Much to your credit, you put a bunch of qualifiers in the thread title: Closest I've ever come to THINKING I MIGHT need to use my carry...

Things flash through your mind. I'm not a big believer in the thought crime court. You didn't DO anything wrong. Good to be prepared. Good to be aware. Glad everything worked out. No big deal.

I may or may not have a deceased grandpa that put an '06 round into a guys outboard for running his trot line in SE Oklahoma. Those depression era fellas didn't play where food was concerned.

SE Oklahoma plays by their own rules. Legislature be dammed!

Yeah ... I know ... he's riding my ass about it RIGHT NOW ... sigh ... I gotta quit playing around on that kindle thingee. No good comes from it.

New OSA game; you create two new IDs, "BadgeCop" and "GlockBunny". Then you and GC post randomly under these IDs while we all try to figure who is who. Now let's play ball!

Oh. Well. I didn't realize how close you were. Dang. Yup I'm with ya on this my brotha

That's was just when they were circling us trying to swamp us. He got a lot closer waking us at first, with in a few feet of the side of our boat.

Lol ... man ... the things I could say and blame it on GC ...

It would have been a good shoot, drunks in large, fast boats have killed a lot of fisherman.

Other than the element of surprise, probably nothing.
