If you're trained to 'see a gun, kill a citizen', and expected to perform that task instantly, then you do indeed need to make a 'split-second decision', if you don't mind being a murdering ****.
Otherwise, no need for action unless the person with the gun-like object is committing a crime, like assault or robbery with it. If they're using it in an armed robbery, does it really matter all that much to the defensive shooter if it's a firearm, airgun, or toy/replica? |

TO REMEMBER |
| As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms. — Tench Coxe in `Remarks on the First Part of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution' under the Pseudonym "A Pennsylvanian" in the Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789 at 2 col. 1. |
