Just want to know what you'd do in this nightmare scenario.
I doubt the chest-beaters here will tell the truth, though.

It would depend on other factors besides the fact that they were carrying guns.
Do they look like businessmen or sportsmen? Or do they look like thugs & bikers?
Are they watching the door or parking lot? Are they paying attention to the cameras?

If you had ever made a poll here, you would know that none of that excess information fits into the poll's question box.

Right. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig-ta-ta-TUH.

It ain't your store, and you ain't allowed to bring firearms to work.
But yeah, I get it: you're tough. Thanks.
If the weapons are in holsters or cases? Serve them. People who care for guns properly generally have the manners and money to act as good customers.

They are not in holsters or cases. They are in their hands.
The gentlemen are also wearing panty hose on their heads.

Not every convenience store has a panic button.

That's where the Corn Nuts come in, see.
So let me change my post too. If the store didn't have a panic button and wouldn't let me have my gun, I wouldn't work there.

But let's pretend that you are allowed a gun, then what would you do?

If it was 2am and 4 guys with pantyhose on their heads and guns in their hands started to come in? I'd grab my gun and try to hide in the back. If I couldn't get to the back quick enough, I would start shooting.

Great. One less moron in the gene pool....

Maybe 4 less morons.
Would you care to explain why you think my actions would be moronic and why you are so sure I would be dead?

1) The only country in the western world where somebody would have a shootout is in the US
2) Most people would just hand over the money or go hide somewhere until they are gone
3) Only the US conservative male thinks it is somehow a pox on their manhood if they don't 'man up' and start shooting the bad guys. Like you handing over the money is somehow a wussy thing to do, or is a blight on your 'freedom'. It is somehow cowardly to let armed robbers take stuff.
Let's look at the outcome your way:
1) 1-5 people possible dead or at least injured - that is a given if you open up
2) Money possibly/likely taken anyway if it's 1 vs 4
3) The owner is insured so he gets his money back
My Way
1) I live, they live (most likely - there is the odd occasion when some meth head might open up anyway, but unlike Hollywood, the actual stats of armed people opening up on victims is very rare)
2) The money is gone
3) The owner is insured
4) I get to describe the bad guys to the cops and it becomes their problem, not mine.
In an open carry State I would simply treat them as any other customer since legally they have every right to go about armed.

NC is an open carry state , although I have a conceled carry permit
