  1. You know one of the biggest problems with one of these interwebs "he said she said" monkey in the cage poop throwing contest is that you've BOTH going to walk away from this smelling like SH!T ...
     
    (1) Ya don't stack pistols you don't OWN to compare sizes; you use your eyeballs and how they feel in the hand...
     
    (2) Counter Guys have to put with a lot of scat from customers although some are scat to start with...
     
    (3) Know that if you treat the customer like a douche (no matter if he deserves it or not) he will tell even complete strangers how he was treated...


    This post sums it up nicely.

    I was wrong to stack the guns.

    Authenticman, if you're ever in the belle Meade area for luch, I'll buy.
  2. *sigh*, counter to the left of the register. Probably a S&W. I remember people by their vehicles not their face, its easier for me. Tacoma. I have a business to run have a good day. I will be available after 6pm if someone wants to continue the name calling.

    But you heard it all go down........;)
  3. Juvenile as in raising his voice in protest against being asked to use a cloth to keep from damaging something he didnt own. Especially in front of his daughter. He should set a good example for his child. If memory serves correctly, and at my age it has started to fail, he even made a remark to the tune of " both the guns are black" as if that should make a difference as to whether it was okay to have the guns touching together. I have been buying guns from E.W. for nearly a year now and have not been asked to leave the store. But, then again, I managed a class III gun store for several years, and tend to use proper gunstore etiquette.

    Care to enlighten us a ill bit more? There were two other customers and the two counter guys, would you care to describe me, or yourself, or the two clerks to me. B/c I can describe everyone in the place at the time.

    You know, it's their shop their rules. But it's the way it was handled that was rediculous.

    There is only so much info one can discern from the internet. Holding it in you hand and making an actual physical comparison makes a big difference to me. The towel being thick and black would have made it impossible to tell where one gun started and one gun stoped. Or to be able to see which one has the longer more protruding trigger guard.

    Now then I asked to see two pistols, compared them and asked to see a third to compare to one of the first two. If you heard everything can you tell me what those guns were?

  4. Long story short, I wanted to compare two pistols size wise next to each other and they don't want you to touch the pistols together. I know this because the guy threw a thick black had towel at me and told me to put it between them.

    Ok, how are you supposed to compare two all black pistols with a thick black towel between them( you know, like comparing how big the trigger guards are.)

    I asked if he had anything else I could use, and was told no don't scratch my guns.

    I said ok, no thanks and set the two pistols down and started to walk away.

    This is the point to where it gets rediculous. As I'm walking away the counter guy very rudely tells me that I need to leave the premesis. This caught me off guard, so I stopped and asked him if he was serious.

    He then told me to leave again and dropped his right hand to his side and kinda behind him( he was open carrying his pistol on his hip in this area) turned his right side away from me and with his left hand made a show of picking up the phone as if he's calling the cops.

    I had my six year old daughter with me.

    At this point I left and made my way(via Krispy Kreme) to the other location to talk to the owner.

    The owner didn't really seem to care that his employee was, in my view, acting in a very threatining way.
    Over me touching two guns together. Two plastic framed pocket pistols......

    The owner said he would watch the video from the other store and call me back, but he didn't appear to care what I had to say about anything.

    Never again will I step foot in his stores.


    Rant over.

  5. Does anyone know if Wally World can order from Remington's catalog, IE special orders?

    I have asked my daughter who works there to find out but she has yet to do it. I sure as hell hope so and if they start selling decent Handguns I will need to buy a new safe!

    yes they have a special order catalog. pay half up front and half when it comes in.

    all major retailers get "special" edition guns. bass pro, dick's, academy, wal-mart, etc. will purchase firearms that are exclusive to them. the major distributors do it as well.

  6. The TWRA range in Cheatham county is definitely unsupervised. Go there during the week and you should have no problems. Cost is 5.50$. I have been going there for about 5 years and have yet to be checked.

    and filthy. why people can't pick up after themselves i don't understand.
