Do you call out people pointing a gun at you?

[gyppo]

Was at a gun store Saturday, had a guy walk up with a gun wrapped in a cloth. I could see the hammer on the revolver and he was clearly pointing the muzzle at me and a few other people. I kept stepping away from where he was pointing the muzzle until I heard him say that it was loaded. I asked him not to point it at me any more, in a nice tone. He started pointing it down but still at my feet and said he was not pointing it at me in not a polite tone.
We had a few back and forth comments until a nice guy, said he would stand in front of me.
I gave it up at that point.
I am more careful than most. I have had three close calls with the public on NDs and one instance where a guy shot himself with an ND.
I would normally just leave but I had driven to the shop for a specific purchase.

I was wondering how other people handle issue where people carelessly point a gun at them.

Move it or lose it.

I will usually say something like "Excuse me but could you be a little more careful with where you are pointing that? Thanks"

 

[Rush Je3p]

Yes, watch that muzzle people

I try to be nice but usually ending up sounding like a dick cause the morons that pull this crap continue until you say it louder with purpose.

No one likes being swept by a muzzle and it's important to point it out. I'd just politely make them aware of the situation

or they give you the "it's not loaded" crap

Yes and we all should. I think that some people are simply oblivious.

I had a nitwit point his Ruger 22 handgun at me (absent mindedly I'm sure) while I was taking him to task over using range furniture as a target stand. On the second sweep, I just told him, "If you point that pistol at me one more time, I can promise you aren't going to like what I will do with it." He stopped.

I'll mention it them politely once. If it happens again I won't be polite at all about it.
