Now you have a chance to rethink your carry options and everything you've learned about situational awareness. Whether you're completely happy with it or not, your response worked with this guy. You didn't comply and put yourself at the mercy of this person who might have shot you and the barber anyway.

It's also too bad your barber wasn't of similar mindset and mentally prepared and possessed of the means to shoot a criminal who was threatening the life of one of his customers.
