Why?

If someone manages to grab your primary gun (whether it is OC or CC), would you rather have access to a back up gun or not? Personally, my answer is "yes, having access to another gun would be better than being completely disarmed in that circumstance". By asking this question, I am guessing that you are not quite as certain as I am on this point.

I'm curious as to why you might prefer to be completely disarmed in that (admittedly unlikely) scenario.

In this circumstance where someone has grabbed your pistol in the middle of a Walmart, you appear to be arguing you should go for a BUG gun, this assuming some sort of shooting exchange in the middle of a Walmart.

If it were me, thats not prudent. Frankly they would not have grabbed my carry in the first place. Concealed means concealed.

There are thousand ways for such a scenario to play out. Don't get caught up with only one.

There are zero details in the story link. As mentioned earlier, I would like to see video so we could get some idea how he was carrying, what sort of holster he was using, and what type of gun. At this point, I can only assume the guy did not have a retention holster and someone was able to snatch the gun and run away.

As for the other argument, I am not fan of OC, but I like having the option and there will occasionally be situations where I need to use it. However, people do lots of things in life just because they want to or can.
