Plenty of weekend warriors get in trouble pulling their Roscoe out when they should not have. You need to study up on the law in your state.

Really easy to pull it thinking you'll scare someone off, only to have them take it away from you as you weren't actually prepared to shoot someone. Dont pull it unless you are (theoretically legally) prepared to destroy the subject target. You can turn a so-so situation into a bad one if you end up in a wrestling match while holding your pistol.

As noted above, improper brandishing / display can lead to a night in jail or even a felony type charge like aggravated assault w a firearm.

Study!!!
