I agree with Wild that your first response should have been to call the Police.
I have no objection with you readying your gun in case the situation escalated nor with you continuing to observe- As I was in my own home I would have not racked the slide at this point- this does not take long to do and is easy enough to do if things escalate. MY view is that from where you were, putting a loaded magazine in the rifle was all you needed to do.
I have a problem with you observing through a rifle sight. You should have grabbed binoculars and observed through those and been ready to relay information via phone to the Police if things escalated.
It is NEVER wise to point a loaded gun at anything that you are not ready to destroy.
I must say I have a problem with replicas and airsoft guns- many are cheaply made and if the orange tip discolours or comes off and they are too similar to the real thing.
