    The main reason for bringing up a subject like this is to get opinions and options on how to deal with the situation.

    Myself:

    1. If I was within reach I would push the barrel away to a safe direction else move to 2.
    2. In a very loud, calm, clear, authoritative voice, so as many in the place can hear including other customers and staff, make it clear that I was uncomfortable having a firearm pointed at me and that both the customer and sales staff must ensure that it never happens again and that they are both responsible for the situation. Basically make them feel very uncomfortable.
    3. If I felt the response to the above was inadequate proceed to ask for both their details for a formal complaint to the Police.

    Admittedly I am a very quiet person but I have been in similar situations before and made plenty of noise about it. The trick is to be calm and authoritative and not resort to being abusive and antagonistic. The arms officers that vetted both TimeRider and myself said that we must take firm action if required.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    There were quite a few that didn't unfortunately.

    well toby go and point a firearm at me and see what happens I agree whole hartedly to not point a firearm at someone.but in the real world the law looks at force vs force if you pull a knife but get smaked in the head with a fist whon is going to win in court???? if you point a high powerd fire arm at my head and I smak you in the chops who is going to walk out of court head held high??.

    That's not how it works. Assault the next person who muzzles you at a gun store and see how it works out for you.

    Funny,

    You put up a post about something that happened you feel like sharing, and invite comment- some post in with related instances that have happened to them, some just to share their opinion as to right or wrong as sociable people do, weather they necessarily agree or not, but some........ jump in to post full of rage and vitriol and general antiness re the thread itself and those that post but don't agree with his point of view, people like that, might want to consider the following:

    1- Platform shoes will solve the height problem,
    2- Taking the pill will help adjust the "time of the month" problem,
    3- Not posting in threads you hate will help your nerves,
    4- Valium will help solve the rest,

    If you recognise yourself here, pleased I could help!

    So, I would have just said “Oi, don’t point that thing at me!”, an then tottered out in my high heels.

    Not fully, I heard that they go off by themselves without any human intervention whatsoever and that if they have pistol grips and sliding stocks they are 3x more likely to be used in aggravated assaults against babies.
    Go firearm shopping in the US and every AR in the shop has a fucking 30 rounder jammed up it's arse while it's on display, 787b would have a coronary artery spasm

    So if forums aren't for discussing issues and topics of interest what are they for? Typing practice?

    Ha ha ha ha you need more practice. You missed out the word "The" at the beginning of that sentence AzumitH.

    Product of my edumacation.

    And to others comparing shotgun fitment to being muzzle swept by randoms with a gun you haven't checked have gone a little off track.
