So what events led up to this Jurgen? Were you two looking at the mower when the guy shows up unannounced? Did he have his pistol out or was he wearing it and then pulled it? Was this at a residence and if so was the lady involved/robbed or an accomplice?
I have done many CL deals at my home, at other homes, and in public places. I never felt like I was in danger - perhaps I am very selective in the process. Or just lucky. I don't know the rules in CA but I am guessing if I shot someone who was taking my wallet and phone I would go to jail for the remainder of my life. Perhaps if the guy was armed as in your situation it would be more in my favor.
