It is some kind of a threat, call 911 and call the Critical Response Team, follow instructions on the back of the member ID card

Very few states have “brandishing” laws, but every state is going to have at least one law that comes into play when one intentionally displays a firearm with the intent of altering another person’s behavior

You may or may not have an affirmative defense in that you were acting in self defense when you did it, depending on the totality of the circumstances

Or the person you showed it to shoots you before you can use it because they took it as a threat.

In TN they call it “brandishing.” But, not in NY.

In NY they call it “menacing.” If not justified, then you are in for a hassle.

If justified, it should not be a problem. Like, you felt your life in danger and/or great bodily harm.

But, seeing you squarely pointing your gun at him, the BG stopped his threat behavior, and politely waited for the cavalry to arrive rather than die.

So, you cleared leather, and held the BG at gun point, a really long intense “brandishing.”

Just be sure that you advise 911 of the situation and that you are the one that is lawfully present, and will ground your gun, on their arrival and identify yourself, and cooperate fully. That the BG looks like an angered gorilla jacked on meth and jittery as all hell. (Or, whatever will distinguish the BG from you.)

What may help is if your emergency dispatcher service participants in Smart911, it’s an app that they use to give them all the basic information on your home location, who lives there (belongs), your DL #s, names, contact info. etc.
If you have pets, we have two dogs, all their specifics including their chip#s, any vehicle(s) associated with our address, description and tag #(s)…. So, that whenever, whatever summoned first responders arrive they already know who all lives here, and what else belongs, and know how many or what needs to be evaluated, medical conditions, if a vehicle at our address is ours or not, that type of stuff, without having to state it all. Just mention that we participate in Smart911, (that should flash up to our address, or when called by one of our phones, then you only have to fine tune that info with any exceptions or additional information, like someone not home, or that you have company…
