Armed Robbery, according to the laws of the state of Arizona, occurs whenever a weapon is used in the commission of a robbery theft. The weapon can be a gun, knife or any other deadly weapon.
You can be charged with robbery even if the weapon is not pointed at the victim.
It's also an armed robbery charge without a weapon, if the you give the impression of having a weapon and the victim has a reasonable cause to believe you. An example might be using your finger inside a jacket pocket to give the impression you have a gun. That's enough to satisfy the requirement for an armed robbery charge.
