Annies post and the responses got me thinking.
We have all seen some really bad gun handling at gun shows.
People are everywhere and there is no safe direction.
Here is what I do at gun shows to try to be as safe as possible when looking at a gun.
When it's laying on the table it is always pointing at someone, so I try to point it at the ground between me and the table as soon as possible.
If the cable tie is not through the barrel, I will next check the chamber (cylinder).
And I ALWAYS ask before I check the trigger.
How do the rest of you handle firearms at a crowded gun show?
