While I could shoot a person intending bodily harm to me or someone else with any weapon I consider to be lethal in colorado, I wouldn't do it automatically. I'd probably just throw the cash drawer open and back away.
Whaaat? While you was packing? Why even carry a gun then? If someone threatens violence you have to assume he'll step it up a notch and carry through if allowed. Don't encourage the criminal element by being permissive!

I didn't say shoot him either, but no way would I give up the cash if he brought a screwdriver to a gunfight. I'd back up alright, but close the drawer and take a grip on the weapon and ask him to move along before he got in over his head. I might try to hold him for the cops but I doubt he would, he'd run and I would not give chase. Observe & report.
