I will attempt to answer the original core question:
I guess I would draw down on the individual threatening my co-worker/relative and shout "DROP THE GUN". If the individual turns the gun towards me, twitches the wrong way, etc. then I guess it's BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG. The Steyr M40 holds 12 in the mag.
I've never been in this particular kind of situation, but it seems to me that I don't care if this person is "normally" sort of decent when they're not under stress. If they're stressed enough to pull a gun in this kind of situation, they're stressed enough to SHOOT in this situation, and that is unacceptable.
Anyway, when told they should go to the ER instead of here (which is our policy--emergencies must go to Emergency Rooms), they produce a gun and threaten whomever is working the desk.
