Muzzle swept at Rural King

[FortKnox]

The other day I was at the Rural King gun counter looking when one of the employees, who was off, tells the guy at the counter about what he had done to his Shield.

He was carrying it and pulls it out and puts it in the employees hand with the gun pointed right at me. I quickly backed away and gave the guy a dirty look. The employee saw me and quickly gave it back to him.

I ended up leaving right then and there.

That burns me up. I would have had to say something.

I was in a now defunct LGS in Nashville a couple of years ago, and an off duty LEO dropped in.  I was on the other side of the store, so i am not sure what prompted it, but he pulled out his Glock, racked the slide, and then removed the mag.  He then proceeded to sweep the entire store, with his finger inside the guard.  

 

I asked him, very politely, to check his chamber again.  He was mortified once he realized his error, but it could have been a bad situation.

I was once in Academy and this moron was looking at a gun.  He picked it up looked at it and aimed it my way.  I grabbed the end of the gun pointed it away and said "If you don't understand why I'm doing this you have no business owning a gun because you are a F***in moron" and walked off.   I could hear him saying to the counter guy "What was his problem? I don't see why he should be so upset" and the counter guy said "That guy was probably right".

 

I will almost always make a comment when some jack hole is standing at the counter waving it around.

I am always amazed there are not more NDs at gunstores

My first police academy range instruction was in 1979, taught by an old guy who had to be in his 70's then. We worked only on J-frame S&W's. Range safety was not only paramount, if you f***ed up, you were out. Period. No second chances. You tended to pay attention.

 

The ONLY way a weapon would EVER be transferred to another person was --- cylinder emptied;2nd & 3rd finger through the cylinder opening; grip first toward the recipient. Even today, by force of habit, I point it downwards, pop the magazine, empty the chamber, turn it around, and hand it grip-first with the slide locked open. Younger guys sort of look at me with a question in their eyes. Older guys just look, and sort of get this look on their face like, "man, you WERE taught right, weren't you ?????".

 

God bless you, Okie Miles (RIP).
