Well, it was out of line to dress her down in front of others, but your anger is not out of line. I've seen some AD's at the range before and sometimes the person is totally unphased by it and thinks it's no biggie. Those are the types you never want to see at a range again. No matter how angry anyone gets, that's always preferable if it leads to correcting what can be maiming or deadly carelessness. Show her some Internet photos of what can happen with an AD and that might scare her straight. I'd rather be alive to face my wife's wrath than dead or missing a limb because she didn't take my mild-mannered lecture serioulsy. When guns are involved, there really is nothing more important in the world than proper handling and safety.
