I've approached many in the last 26 years with my handgun out.
My method is to keep it discreetly behind me while I talk with them. If they are OK or the situation doesn't call for deadly force, I simply turn my holster side away and put it back. That way they never see the weapon but it is in my hand in case I need it.
