I was in the Houston Gander Mountain for reloading supplies and looked up to see a guy at the gun counter who had a rifle to his shoulder with the scope trained on me. I immediately headed to the counter and the culpret quickly walked away as I approached. I called the clerk up to the counter and complained that cutomers shouldn't be pointing firearms, loaded or not, in such a manner. He then showed me what the guy had been pointing at me. It was an empty stock with a scope mounted. I explained that from accross the store where I was scoped,(60 feet or so) that it would be hard to see the barrel and that looking up seeing that somebody has a high powered scope trained on you is pretty uncomfortable to say the least and my first thought wasn't "oh is that not a real gun?" I ask him politely to follow store policy which is to handle firearms in a manner that doesn't cause other customer alarm. He agreed but wasn't too happy. I've also had to ask people not to sweep me with guns while I was at the pistol counter. Doesn't happen often but I don't like to have firearms pointed at me, doesn't matter if they are loaded or not, that's not how I was taught. This thing ticked me off more than I'd like and made me whish I had called the manager and made a scene. Hope there isn't a next time.
