Gently moving aside a weapon pointed at you. Maybe the hero was caught completely off-guard, or he's being menaced by someone he can't simply strike back against, and is now backed against the wall, with something very sharp in his face. So he'll place one finger on the tip of the weapon and nonchalantly guide it out of his face. If it's really sharp and he doesn't want to risk poking himself, grasping the flat part between finger and thumb is also an acceptable method. It works equally well with a gun, perhaps better because of the lack of cutting parts. This is a good way to show that the hero does not consider said enemy much of a threat, despite being armed. Alternately, this could be done to the hero, if he's confronting a potential ally who he doesn't trust (or an ally who shouldn't be trusted to use a gun correctly). This trope also covers use of the line as a Stock Phrase. May be related to Barehanded Blade Block. Better than a Finger in a Barrel. Compare Remonstrating with a Gun. Not to be confused with Artistic License – Gun Safety or I Just Shot Marvin in the Face, although the people listed under those tropes should Point That Somewhere Else. Usually used by a character who is Obfuscating Stupidity or legitimately has no idea of the danger they're in, if they're dealing with a Pushy Gun-Toting Villain. |

One episode of Benson has the title character confront an armed gunman. Benson wrongly believes the gun is a fake, and just annoyedly grabs the gun out of the guy's hand, disarming him. Benson then quickly realizes that it's a real gun, and is terrified at what almost happened. | |

Looney Tunes: Bugs Bunny often does this in his encounters with Elmer Fudd. In "Rabbit Fire", he and Daffy Duck move the rifle back and forth between the two during the Rabbit Season Duck Season routine. In “Bugs Bunny Rides Again” (1948), during one encounter with Yosemite Sam, Bugs turns Sam's pistols around completely mid-argument so that Sam is pointing them at himself. It takes Sam a moment to realize when happened and turn them back around. |

Discworld: In the novel Men at Arms, Sgt. Detritus (a troll) takes a siege bow (i.e. it basically fires telephone poles with blunt points on them to smash castle walls) and points it at the quartermaster in charge of the Ankh-Morpork armory. Corporal Carrot gently points the huge weapon towards the floor while persuading the man to let the Watch borrow some weapons. Naturally, the quartermaster gladly agrees, although he has a hard time getting the words out — the first word he thinks is "FIRE!" This becomes a bit of a running gag when Detritus points the later-refitted siege bow at pretty much anything else, with him either having it redirected or ordered to point it away or put it away. The "Piecemaker", as it is later dubbed, fires large bundles of arrows that disintegrate under the stress to form a rapidly-expanding cloud of deadly wood fragments, taking out anyone or anything that happens to be standing in that general direction, so when coupled with Detritus's shaky grasp of the concept of a safety catch it tends to make his superiors quite jumpy when the Piecemaker is pointed at anything they don't want to see completely leveled. |

Companions in Fallout: New Vegas have amusing, character-specific reactions to having a weapon aimed at them. Cold Sniper Boone asks how the player character would like it if he stuck his rifle in their face, no-nonsense Action Girl Cass will warn the player to knock it off and Cute Bruiser Veronica will ask "Why do we always hurt the ones we love?". Various NPCs have their own reactions too, Sunny Smiles will say "That safety better be on". Boomer children will say "Cool I can see the bullet!". |

Stargate SG-1: In the two-parter opening of season 7, SG-1 is captured by Anubis' First Prime, Her'ak, who announces they'll be publicly executed. When O'Neill ponders if it's a necessity for this to be in public, Her'ak puts the tip of his staff weapon under his nose, and asks if he'd rather be killed right there. To which O'Neill answers that he's fine with a public execution, while gently pushing away the weapon head — and then he rubs his fingers, since touching the tip of an activated serpent staff barehanded is unadvised. | |

Any time that Frank Burns in M*A*S*H draws a weapon, he's usually pointing it directly at someone he shouldn't. With his finger on the trigger. However, the only time this trope really comes into play is during the episode "The Bus," where Burns takes a screwdriver from a North Korean soldier who surrendered to them and accuses the POW of sabotage (he actually was fixing their broken-down bus). Burns is holding the screwdriver, and... | |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: When Mala ends up washed ashore in New York City after a plane crash she easily blocks some bullets thinking her attackers are playing "bullets and bracelets" and then forces them to point their guns downwards when she's talking with them since those things could be dangerous if there are children around.

In Generation Kill, Intrepid Reporter Evan Wright is given an M4 by Corporal Ray Person, who can't fire it because he's driving. While Wright never actually fires the gun, and sensibly kept his finger away from the trigger, when he hands it back, he does so barrel first, which both terrifies and then irritates Person. Wright notes wryly that he was not asked to shoot ever again. (This did not make it into the HBO series) | |

He does so using the Word, even though it didn't work on his family the last time he used it... and TC points the gun away. Jesse then says in the Word, "Drop it".

Men in Black. When Agent J (who really ought to know better) points the Noisy Cricket (itty-bitty pistol with power and recoil of a gun 50x its size) at Agent K, K immediately pushes it away so it isn't pointed at him. | |

Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time: A Terachnoid does this to Ratchet when he raises his wrench at him. He then says "If you intend to manhandle me, I'll have you know I'm a level 10 wizard with melee ability." Ratchet then proceded to push his chair causing him to crash. "That hurt my pride, and my solar plexus." | |

Played for laughs in Assassin's Creed II: Neither character is evil, but Bartolomeo is very enthusiastic about "introducing" Ezio to his sword, Bianca. Ezio is startled for a moment but then moves Bianca away, saying that he's "charmed" in a deadpan expression. | |

In one episode of Codename: Kids Next Door, when Lizzie shows Numbuh 2 and Numbuh 3 a pie she had made for Numbuh 1, they hit the deck while Numbuh 2 says not to point it at them as it might go off. | |

In an early strip of The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob! strip, Bob is arguing with Jerry, who has him at gunpoint. Bob gets so frustrated he just unthinkingly grabs Jerry's gun out of his hand. An instant afterward, even he's amazed that he did it. | |

Doesn't work in Pan's Labyrinth. Captain Vidal aims his pistol at a wounded revolutionary, who weakly pushes it away once, twice, then rests his hand over the barrel. Vidal shoots him in the head, through his hand. | |

In HOUBA! On the Trail of the Marsupilami, this is done by a parrot (with its talon) when a bandito puts a machete under its throat, holding the bird hostage for its master to comply. | |

Burn Notice. Once while Michael Westen was undercover, when racking the pistol given him by the Villain of the Week, Ruthless Modern Pirate Gerard, he inadvertently points it at the Villain, who shoves the barrel away from his face. | |

Only Fools and Horses. Rodney's girlfriend takes him clay pigeon shooting on her father's estate. On his first turn, Rodney stepped up to the shooting area then turned round to speak to the others, inadvertently pointing his shotgun at them. The others yelled at him to lower the barrel but because he was wearing ear protectors he couldn't hear them. Not until the girlfriend's father stepped forward and pushed the gun barrel down towards the ground did Rodney realise what he had done. | |

In Thunderball, James pushes aside a rifle that Largo has casually pointed at him as a veiled threat, before taking the gun to admire it. | |
