The imaginary gun is a much better weapon. It has saved me several times. You have to be a good actor. Never actually pull it out, as they cannot see it and it will spoil the bluff.
Don't even allude to it. Just be overly confident and assertive! Has saved me many times, I've even mentioned a couple of them on ATS.
Overt confidence, directness, and eye-contact can go a long, long way.
Doesn't scare alligators or bears though. For that you need the real gun.

Learn sniper tactics, go paintballing and learn how to distinguish distance of shots fired, self-defense tactics such as range and gun disarmament, situational awareness and presence of self and others in an environment.
Practice parkour/free running techniques, check out Mirrors Edge for concepts.
This is how I have allocated the use of a gun in Canada.
You don't NEED a gun to survive, it helps though. You will need these skills.
You could in theory enclose on a shooters position if need be and take their weapon,
or escape if you know his locale and possible movements. It's all about the moment.edit on 16-7-2012 by yourmaker because: (no reason given)
