Well done for representing our sporting community in a rational, responsible way.

Agreed.
I know plenty of guys who would have stood their ground as they're completely entitled to do, and rightfully so in any other situation sadly.
As you say though, just by wearing a gun makers shirt you're the bad guy by default
Swallowing his pride and walking away was the best course of action.
Good on him.

We could do a "re-enactment" like the media are so fond of doing

I was at the shops today waiting in the food court for a mate, and wearing Remington shirt. It just has the Remington logo and the 'America's Oldest Gunmaker' line on it.
Anyway, out of no where this women appears and starts hurling abuse at me for wearing a gun shirt, saying how can I wear it around kids and all this rubbish... How I'm some kind of maniac...
Before she came up to me I was sitting there staring into space and minding my own business, couldn't be less threatening if I tried...
She's yelling at me about her kids while dragging on of hers along by the arm like he was a piece of luggage...
Luckily I see my mate come round the corner about 15 seconds into her explosive and we leave, but FFS... They reckon us shooters are all the crazy ones.
All this for a shirt which says "gunmaker" on it
