I don’t have a spouse or an SO, but if the Ex Wife was the one pointing the gun at me I’d be ducking and rolling.
My very first reaction would be to pick the phone. Immediately.
And call my doctor to adjust my meds. Taiwan doesn’t allow private citizens to own guns, so it would be a hallucination.
My reaction to idiot friends pointing a gun at me or others was along the lines of “WTF you don’t point those at people! Where the bloody hell did you leave your brain, in the ammo box? Do you even have a brain, you moron?”
If someone was actually aiming one at me rather than fooling around, my reaction could be anywhere between freezing and bodily assault. I don’t have a gun of my own, so no playing High Noon.
No, you aren’t. :dubious:
No insurance made out to either of us so that is not a problem for us but I can see it being for other folks. he he he 
I would check for a rift in the space-time continuum. We have no guns in the house, and the husband has no interest in guns - not to mention he is recovering from emergency brain surgery and does not currently have the strength to hold a one-pound pink hand weight, let alone a gun.
If he was pointing a plastic squirt gun at me, I’d duck so he could squirt whatever bad cat deserved it. And I’d wonder where he got the squirt gun when we have perfectly good spray bottles lying around the house.
Am too… 
I voted “duck for cover” although there might be a chance that I would soil myself. :eek:
I’d say, “Goodbye, Norma.”
Pick up my typewriter and head down the stairs.
Some of the ex’s I have had? If they pointed a gun at me I would know for sure they planned on killing me. I would either duck or do my best to get the gun, whichever I felt I had the best chance of surviving.
I seem to remember something on mythbusters about facing someone with a gun, if they are within something like 5 feet it is actually faster to do something to disarm or divert the gun hand than it is to drop, over 5 feet the person shooting will probably manage to shoot you up to 15 feet, then the chances of being hit decrease [all depending on how good the person with the gun is] I think it is in one of the episodes on netflix that I watched a few months ago.
Like I said, unless mrAru was going nuts, there must be something behind me he would be shooting at and I would either freeze or drop, and he would probably be telling me to drop.
Shoot the gun out of her hand.
I would rush the gun in the hope that if she gets a shot off it either misses or isn’t fatal.
She is a flaming redhead Viking with an attitude to match. The only question I would have is why I wasn’t already dead.
But she is really just a sweetheart. Really. It’s a *good thing *that she is mad at me. It’s a good day!
I think I’ll ask her for a gun safe for Christmas. 
I would deflect the gun and then grab them by the throat just like I did the woman in this thread. Hard to Kill? Steven Segal got nothing on me. 
You have to admit that trying to end things with a suicide/murder plan is going to run into a glitch halfway through.
I would assume that once would be quite sufficient!
Pointing it at me, and not at someone behind me, like a bear or Jason/Freddy type movie killer dude? She’s pointing it at me? Crazy old world–I’d take a step closer and encourage a heart shot. I’m not actively suicidal anymore, but I am so very tired of living.
SWMBO points a gun at me several times a year, and I do the same for her.
Granted, it is a practice gun and we are working on disarming techniques, but still…
I chose “duck for cover”. I think that at the very least allows for the possibility that she’s aiming at something behind me…and if she is, then it’s best to get out of the way as quickly as possible, right?
Frankly, if someone is pointing a gun at me, I’m not going to spend any of what has suddenly become very precious time trying to figure out motive; I’m going to try to remove myself from harm’s way ASAP.
Even if there was, I wouldn’t trust her aim.
I’d run.
