Most clerks "assume" a gun is safe when they pull it out of the case and they don't clear it at all.
I point it straight down through their case, eject the mag, rack and lock the slide, then look in the chamber to double check.
I've seen a thing called an "academy pad", it's a small piece of body armor kevlar about the size of a sheet of paper (half inch or so thick). I heard then ame comes from police academies, they use them when clearing guns, muzzle has to be in contact at all times. If I was a dealer I would have them on all the counters.
Kind of like the young clerk at Gander Mountain, that wanted to show the strength of the crimson trace laser on a Kimber by pointing it up the center isle to the front of the store. Just over the heads of about a half dozen customers. Though none must of noticed, no one ducked and covered or drew on him.
