My wife and I were at a gun show in Dallas a few years ago. We were slowly walking past a booth looking at some of the guns and when I turned to face forward again, I had a 30.06 barrel pointed right in my eye! I guess I must have flashed back to my football days because I crouched a bit, then gave that rifle stock a forearm-shiver that it would feel for a week!

I'm surprised the guy was able to hold onto the gun, but he did. We had a loud nose-to-nose discussion about gun safety and how I didn't care if it was "not loaded", you don't point a gun at anything you're not willing to destroy. I don't know if he got the point, but I had to say something.

At gun shows, I'm all right with people pointing rifles at the ceiling or high on the wall to get a look through the scope, but head-level is off limits.
