I've had my Beltman for 5 years now.

I see that it worked out fine in this situation, but if the officer had believed the aggressor's side of the story and charged kingpinGT it could have been used against him later. Maybe one of your LEOs can chime in, but if kingpinGT had refused to give a statement, would you have detained and charged him?
The OP made the first call. Since he was the complainant, he wanted to give a statement to give the officer the facts to investigate.
In this situation with no shots fired there's little risk in doing so.
Sidenote: I got my Beltman carry belt last week, and it's AMAZING carrying with a legitimate gun belt over my old $20 Kohl's special.

Re: i drew my weapon tonight
That sounds good to me. "treated as a threat". BG can draw his/her own conclusion.Practice stating something similar to "STOP! Step/Move any closer and you will be treated as a threat!
Thanks for the thread.
