Stayed at a seedy motel last night in the Spenard area of Anchorage. As usual I had my Ruger Security Six on the night stand and my Police Positive Special under the bed. The room is up a little flight of stairs and is isolated from the rest of the hotel--on the back side. I was half awake when someone knocked on my door. I got my Ruger out and approached the door, after another knock I asked who it was without opening the door. Mumbled response that makes me nervous--something like "I've got somethng for you." I wait. Another knock and I tell the person they need to leave right now. He says he's after "Dave" and I tell him he has the wrong room. He wanders off, and I look out the window to see a large guy with something under a towell walking away! Yikes! I'm glad I'm not "Dave"!
Now, in retrospect I'm looking for critiques and pointers. I didn't point the revolver at the door, but in a safe direction. Finger off the triger. It was loaded as usual. Should I have ever levelled it at the door, or taken cover? What about the chance of an AD, esp. that early in the morning?
