Lucky Man.

First, I am glad that you are OK.

Second, You are lucky that

I was on passengers side and the ccw was on the floorboard of the passengers seat holstered just up under the seat. Before I could top off the tank and get in,
did not end with "....... one (or BOTH!) of them pulled a pistol and said "Give it up!" or "Get on the ground!"

As it happened, you were lucky, and you were quicker to your gun and smart enough to act decisively (command voice and eye contact) to solve the problem...... AND they were not stupid enough to try their luck (that they were faster or you were bluffing). Just keep in mind that criminals in general are not all that bright. There is no shortage of young fools out there that will risk it all for the contents of your wallet and/or the street cred that shooting you for refusing to "Give it up!" would bring.

Carry your gun. It is a lighter burden than regret.
