I am guessing stamping his foot is the only warning they give. From wiki, so take it for what it's worth: Sentries receive instruction on how to eliminate nuisance or any suggestion of threat from members of the public. There is a protocol they follow which begins with "stamping" (coming to attention sharply). He will also shout: "Stand back from the Queen's Guard" or similar. If this does not eliminate the nuisance or threat he will repeat the stamp and shout again. If the nuisance or threat still does not cease the sentry will assume the position of "port arms" whereby he points his rifle at the source of the interference with his duties. If these warnings are not heeded the sentry then has the choice of detaining the person(s) himself or pressing the button in his sentry box to summon assistance.

Went to Mayport to take a tour of the Hermes about 6 months before Argentina took the Falklands. The few sailors standing on the dock had no weapons but one was carrying a big wrench.
