Besides them being over priced just wanted to share this story.
Went to the gun shop upstairs to buy a bolt action rifle (really i was just looking to hold the one i wanted to buy offline) I ask the guy behind the counter could he take off the trigger lock so i could feel how the trigger was
This was his exact words "I dont think so i value my life" I said what are you talking about. Him- "you could put a bullet in thier" I said even if im going to buy the gun your not gonna let me try out the trigger? No he said.
I asked to speak to the manager, he said "i am the manager" I said let me speak to someone higher than you. At this point he gets really angry and tells me i make him nervous and for me to give him the gun back.
I was just standing thier looking at my wife like is this really happening. He the starts to raise his voice and says " you will listen to me while im behind this counter ( i still dont know what he was talking about)
He then slams down his fist on the counter and asked one of his assosiates to walk me out the store. All i could say while walking off is your really threating me. I couldnt beleive it
I go down stairs talk to the store manager and explain he appologized and took my number down, said he would take care of it. He also told me that is thier policy on the guns. WOW
Im going to stick with small buisnesses from now on , people who know how to deal and treat customers. Why did i ever stray off. I started to think about it later, had they sold me the gun, they would have had to take off the trigger lock and put it in the box, i would have walked out the store with it like that. Oh well they have lost a customer for life. Thanks for listening
