As a Massachusetts state firearms instructor and a long time NRA instructor the rule of the range on my watch is when a pistol is not in use it should be placed down with the muzzel pointing down range and action open with the magazine removed. (if a semi auto)

I am also a range officer at two of the clubs that I belong to and remind people of this safety rule. Additionally, it is your responsibility, in a nice way, to warn people of any unsafe activity. They may be a little offended at first but will come to realize the importance of gun safety.
