quick question about Ranges?

Postby Nougat on Fri Jan 11, 2019 9:57 pm

I remember seeing a term for when people unintentionally or maybe a better word would be irresponsibly point a firearm at someone?? splash? Cant remember.. the reason I want to know is I work Carpentry and theres a new kid that is NOT very careful/conscious with the nail guns particularily when handing them off, and I want to sound cool when I ask him to get it together regarding this behaviour :D hope you can help..I really dont like it one bit :o

sweep

Yep, did he mean isn’t though?

If he sweeps someone, give him a broom and he’ll figure it out eventually.

When someone points the muzzle of a gun at someone they "Sweep" that person with the muzzle. Is That what you are looking for.

Your question is not clear. Missing word (not)?

Sweep and flag are the two most common words.
