Gun store owner/worker anons what horror stories do you have

>>32679233
Not in the industry currently but that's fine. People can burn you out. I think the most frustrating was at a show last year with a Vietnam vet who had some transgender issues. He was out of his mind, arguments none stop, even when I was avoiding them. I just wanted him gone and if I didn't have another person at the table to turn the sale, I would have ended up loosing my cool.

>customer comes up to optics counter
>what are looking for today sir?

Underrated post

>>32682690
I work at a pawn shop that carries guns, and worked at an FFL where I did weekend shows for a living, and trust me, if you can't contain your laughter, you can't make it in this business.
I'm not saying all employees who handle guns are knowledgeable, don't get me wrong, but for those of us who are, who see these dumbass thugs walk up, pick up a Mossberg 500 PGO and yell "Yaw chek out muh desurt eaagle." It makes you want to simultaneously weep and laugh.

>go to Dicks
>want to buy Mossberg 500
>wait for backround check
>it gets delayed
>ok
>get a call 4 days later it came back (dicks doesnt allow the "3 days and youre clear" thing)
>go back to store
>talking with employee while he finishes checking me out
>"oh yeah the system got fucked up, everyone who bought a gun the last 4 days got delayed because we somehow made the system unable to receive Proceeds from the FBI"
>it took them 3 fucking days to realize everyone who bought a gun was getting delayed with 0 Proceeds
Fuck you Dicks, youre a shit store

>>32679867
He was lying, he didn't know what a good scope was, nor did he own a SCAR 17. He plays Call of Duty and thinks that's the only good gun since MW2

This was in upstate NY, the only other option is the one gun store 45 minutes away that has even less options

Also like 45+ minutes away because its a shit state

Out with the girl friend hitting up my favorite restaurant about a hour away.
>GF introduces me to Daiquiri express at 1 in the afternoon. I discover the magical drive through. Get some texas tea concoction and settle in for the ride back.
> an hour later getting back into town and remember we are on the same side of town as the shop mentioned in the last story. Command woman to drive there. About a mile before the shop some other pawn shop has a big GUNS sign out front. Let woman to turn in at this place.
> Walk into the shop and after searching a bit find the tiny gun section in a corner. Handguns are all at least $100 over retail, see a highpoint tagged at $300. I switch to the dozen long guns they have behind lock and key.
> all bolt guns in wood stock except one AK pattern rifle. The tag reads $1500. Curiosity intensifies. Mexican chick walks up and ask if I need help. Sure can I see that AK pattern rifle off the rack. SIR I need identification before I can hand anyone a gun. Pull out wallet and slap down my CHL. Girl picks it up and becomes instantly confused. Sir what is this? It is a stat issued handgun licence...
>Sir do you have a driver's licence... BAKA sure,hand her my DL and then get my ID's back. She goes and fetches the keys.
>Ok sir with one did you want to see? The AK pattern rifle (literally the only one). We proceed to play three rounds of This one? No to the right. This one? ......
>Finally figures out what i'm talking about. Hands me an AK with mismatched furniture, a clearly home made heat shield over the piston and more dings than all the cars in a high school parking lot put together. I stirt to look it over, searching for anything that would justify the $1500 price tag. I flip it around and that's when I see it. Under the scrape across the serial number and model "WASR-10" I hand back the rifle but cannot contain myself. Some trace of the texas tea is still with me, I cannot contain my laughter.

>>32682935

Worked there over Christmas a few years ago. Can confirm. Fun fact: nowhere in their employee procedures do they ever require any workers in a retail store to verify a weapon is clear and safe.

Everyone in the store was looking at this coon like he was a mentally retarded child. How did he not understand how awkward he was being? Like zero self awareness.

>>32684717
Was that superior pawn and gun on mercury Blvd? I've been there before and it's exactly like that. Just a local gang hangout filled with undesirables. Hopefully it burns down soon

>>32684717
That's literally what Target World in Cincinnati is like. The last time I was in there, some nigger stole my targets and they never clean the guns they have for rent. I hate places like that.

>>32684807
Yes. Fucking little shit hole. Hampton was pretty fun though. Brother is stationed at Langley, just hung out shot guns with some of his AF bros who all have gucci'd out AR's and expensive shit they enjoyed sharing so that was cool. Pretty good long weekend. That's funny that you knew that spot just by my story. You live there? Military?

>>32679233
What are the basic qualifications I would need to even apply to a gun store?

>>32684899
apply to a gun store for work*

>>32684876
I'm in college in RVA right now, but lived there all through high school. will be military when I graduate. Parents work at Langley though. Tell your brother to look up fort Eustis. They have a 300 m (or something) outdoor range for military at the golf course there he can probably get in on. It's like 35 bucks for the whole year. Its really the only decent range around. Other than that CSA in Norfolk is ok, if not a bit pricey.

Anyone in the area knows about that place, and no one who has more than two dimes to rub together will go there. I'd take the marksman up the road even if the range is a bit grimy, at least I won't get shot getting in and out.

noted. thank you sir. Also I went to the waffle house there. God damn, shit was tasty. Virginia was pretty based. $3 pint night at some bar and then there was another bar that was closing down next to it that had $3 for any drink you wanted. Was a fucking shit show. $3 for 12 year scotch or anything you wanted. Mental... I went ham down there. Was nice taking my yankee cash down there. So cheap in Virginia.

>>32685097
Damn, that's cheap even for our standards. Good deal. Also that pawn shop was maybe 15 minutes away from like 4 strip joints if that helps you figure out hampton. Move to VA, leave the communism, embrace strip joints and cheap beer

Once a month guy comes in and tells me how his rifle "misfired" and there is a live round in the chamber, and proceeds to ask me if we will mail it to manufacturer for him.

>So you want me to put a loaded gun in a UPS box

Yeah I really want to leave NYC, but I have a good salary job here and so does my lady. combined we make just shy of $200k a year and we have stupid cheap rent because we live in Brooklyn and live in a house owned by her family friends. So we are saving to hopefully move to Nasvhille and buy a house. I have family there and gun laws are still good i believe. But honestly Hampton was cool as fuck. I can imagine it being amazing in the summer, with the beach etc.

It's crazy how cucked this city is though. I looked into how to get a pistol here and it was a nightmare of legal fees, application fees and so on. Crazy. wasnt worth it.

Fat fuck comes in.

I asked him about that, actually.

I asked him if he had a fixed front sight post, and whether or not it was F marked. Left it out of greentext for brevity sake, but he continued to tell me how, in so many words, I was the fucking idiot for suggesting he try to adjust the elevation on his front sight post, and ignored the question about F marking or lack thereof

I have collected these stories over a period of about 2 years working in a gun shop.

desu I hate it, but I can't get enough of it. It's part time while I finish an accounting degree. If I am still in the area after graduation, I'll keep working 1 day on the weekend.

I like my coworkers, and I enjoy most of our regulars.

My employee pricing isn't that great, but I just enjoy being able to spend a few days a week with guns and people who enjoy them

How did I spend 4 years in Norfolk and not know about this range at Fort Eustis? I mean, it's a bit of a drive but it beats shooting at tiny indoor ranges.

>>32683171
Call the amberlamps

You know, Academy isn't half bad for /k/ related things. They're a little more expensive than online, but they're not really price gouging you. I think the small amount they upsell is worth it to get the item right then and there. They also have plenty of targets like tannerite, and the gun selection isn't too bad. I only wish they had a rifle and shotgun catalog at the firearms desk so you don't have to glance over everything to see what they have. Still, if you know what you're looking for they're generally friendly and helpful. They have a decent selection of pistols at a decent price (again,a bit of an upsell, but not horrible).

This is the exact opposite of big sporting goods shops like Bass Pro or Cabelas. I fucking hate those places with a passion. Even the used guns are 1.5x what they should be for their condition, and the ammo prices tend to be absurd. Sure, you get more selection and they can have good sales, and it's more fun to waltz around in those stores, but those don't make up for the fact that you will be getting ripped off 9 times out of 10.

>>32685759
Yeah

>>32685920
The hampton one is a shit one where all the gang boys go to shoot their C9's sideways. Don't know about the others.

When all these people see in Hollywood movies is a tacticool squad of Mp5 wielding CONTACT shouting SWAT TEAM 6 SEALS yes. Hell, I couldn't even answer the gun stone owner when he asked if my rifle was 556 or 223 when I bought my first AR. I was a nub. Get over it, some people aren't proficient with guns Its like asking people who have never driven before to turn on their accessory lights. Or people who have never fished to to tell you what kind of rod they have. Chill out.

You can buy a $200 black powder pistol from Cabela's without a license but a fucking $50 airsoft needs a license. No joke.

If you do this you either must shut the fuck up about the gun or own no ammo supplies to keep it in an "unloaded" state and legal state.

>Its like asking people who have never driven before to turn on their accessory lights. Or people who have never fished to to tell you what kind of rod they have
Well accessory lights aren't clearly marked in the biggest writing on the product unlike the fucking manufacturers name which is printed on the surface of the gun the average user will see the most of

And yeah, I can probably tell you what brand fishing rod I have because once again, the manufacturer puts it in big writing on an obvious surface

>>32689109

Most people don't know what make model their car is, not everyone is as smart and on top of things as you anon. I bought a rifle because of the 2012 election and I asked for an AR15, he gave me one and some boxes of ammo, I went to the range and used it all and when I went for more I didn't have any of the boxes to know what kind of ammo I bought.

You are looking at this with experience, you need to put yourself in the mind of someone who just bought a fishing rod to try to catch some fish because fishing is fishing.

They don't know what the fuck draw weigh is, or what kind of bait to use for what fish. What line it is they cast or where to fish from.

They just bought a rod to fish because fish lmao

I know its all so stupid NOW, we are all experienced and what not. But I suppose one day when you are trying to get into something you never paid attention to you will remember this thread and just how many things you really didn't know about a particular subject.

>the manufacturer puts it in big writing on a obvious surface

*sigh* You guys just don't get it. To them its not an EO Tech, its a holosight. To them its not a AR chambered in 556, its a rifle.

They don't look at those things because they are oblivious and new to it all. FFS why is this so hard to understand? I KNOW FOR A FACT that at one point in your life someone introduced you to something you didn't quite know and they had to show you how it worked or functioned and now that you look back at it you feel like an idiot.

>>32689058
that may be true but i'm not 21 so I can't order it online

>>32689123
I've only been a gun owner for a couple years, and when I was getting into it, I did my research. I guess I can't picture someone just jumping headfirst into the world of guns without any knowledge.

>>32682907
You cant order ammo online in jew york?

>>32689190

Most people don't "do their research" they go to a gun store and assume the employees will help them out.

Of course researching on your own is great, but thats not what most people do. Especially if they feel that they are not experienced with guns and would much rather take advice from someone who does, as opposed to reaching their own conclusions from the Internet.

>>32684717
I would've pistol whipped that dumb monkey for waving around a gun like that

>>32689137
And I'll say it again, due to the fact I have an IQ above 85 I can discern the manufacturer of a product when there is large writing saying who makes the product on its surface in an obvious location. You're acting like being able to find a word on the exterior of a product in an obvious location is the same as knowing how to use the product.

>>32689150
Where do you need to be 21 to order ammo? I'm 18 and I order handgun ammo online all the time.

>>32689200
Yup, no online ammo sales to NY (legally). Some sites do it anyways like all of them should. Its retarded because NY legally cant do anything about corporations from outside their state breaking their laws.

>>32685064
Well, which is it anon?

>>32689243
Huh, always figured you needed to be 21 to order ammo, because on most sites that sell guns and ammo they always say you must be 21 or older
Where do you order from?

>>32685510
Sounds like a guy I work with at Academy in centex (don't laugh pls I used to have a good job).
>>32686007
Be selective of which one you go to. My store is 1/2 retired infantry so they generally know what they're doing but tend to be assholes to people the spew memes about guns or want to discuss menial stuff, because we spend an hour a day getting rammed in the ass over trying to get credit card applications or being told to round up shopping carts, work at the greeting podium, or empty trash cans. Fishing and hunting is the one department that has low turnaround but it's also the only one that gets trained on federal and local paperwork, shitbdoesnt make much sense. I almost miss the holidays because that was the one time I've gotten to do what I applied for which was share my moderate level of knowledge on guns and do 4473's.
>>32689003
Again, be selective about which one you go to. I have to call to other stores to check inventory sometimes and that shit is god awful.

Sportsman's Guide mostly because I was stupid and I forgot to unsub from their membership so now I use my $40 to save money and get free shipping. And yes, technically you're supposed to be 21 to buy handgun ammo however /spoiler/ they don't have any way whatsoever to know if you're 21 other than a box they make you check that says "check here to confirm you are over 21".

the requirement to have your current address on a form of government issued identification is 100% the most effective means of keeping hoods from buying firearms. Also prevents most of our straw sales before we have to just tell the 2-6 guys looking at a gun making the youngest without a criminal record buy it to all fuck off before we call the police.

How does the current address thing work to keep hoods from buying? Do they not have ID or something? Even if the ID doesnt have their current address does the FBI know that?

if you put your old address on the form you're perjuring yourself and if you fail the background check and they actually come after you (which pretty much never happened under obama), if you aren't at the address you put on the physical form the FFL retains it's another thing to judicially sodomize you with.

and it's a concrete reason to deny a sale, since "you smell like weed and can't answer 11e truthfully/your buddy just handed you a fist full of bills sir we are not in fact "racis" we just don't want you to violate federal law" is "subjective".

Get muzzle pointed at me regularly. It doesn't bother me a much as it used to.
One guy kept sweeping me with the muzzle, then told his wife not to point the gun in his direction.
I often get dumb responses when I ask people to keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
"I thought smaller guns had less recoil"
"But I thought you emptied it so it was safe"
Discussing safety with customerS and how they act surprised customers point the muzzle at people/me. They then proceed to repeatedly sweep me with the muzzle.
Customer answers yes to question about being convicted of a felony, acts surprised that I can't proceed with sale since it was so long ago.

>>32689926
>muzzle sweeping
for itself its a bad thing. But if you handle a gun from the shop and sweep someone, where is the problem? Are the guns in the gunshops sometimes loaded? dont be so anal if you clearly know that this gun is unloaded

>>32682841
I work at Dicks and this makes no sense to me.
If they couldn't get responses from NICS, then they wouldn't be able to get Delayed responses.
When you submit the application you get a proceed, denied, delayed, or it says no response has been received and to wait 8-11 minutes and check again.
There are some days/week's when it seems like a lot more people get Delayed than others, but never heard of anything like you're talking about.

The manager comes over and they even are able to look up my transaction from before, but still won't sell me the shotgun shells they sold me when I was 18 now that I'm 18 and a half.
I then go to the local gun store 4 blocks down and buy a box of shells with no problem.
I told the story to the guy at the counter there and he figures they must have recently implemented some new store policy.

It's not believable if he's swapping out an ACOG for a .22 scope on a SCAR. That scope will be destroyed in one or two range trips, anyway, so he's flushing $150 down the toilet.

I'm trying really hard to find the issue here. A gun chambered in .308 will safely chamber 7.62x51, but the inverse is not advised. Did this guy just not realize he should be consistent with the ammo he uses when sighting in and hunting, or... Can someone explain this one to me, or did this guy just do a shitty job of explaining it?

Maybe because you're focusing on the black retards only.

This got me wondering, do you guys say "safety on/off, loaded/unloaded" when handing over firearms to one an other when you are at the range?

I'm sure they solve the problem by not hanging around faggots who can't comprehend safety starts with yourself. If he didn't point the firearm at the customer, the customer has full responsibility to check the weapon.

A bullet button was a way around Californias assault weapons ban. To cut to the chase, the AWB pretty much says you cannot have a rifle with both a pistol grip and detachable magazine. You can have one or the other, but not both.

Bullet buttons were a way around this. A detachable magazine is defined as a magazine that can be detached without tools or disassembly of the gun. A bullet button simply replaces your magazine release so that it requires a tool, typically a bullet hence the name, to remove the magazine. Ya, it's still a pain in the ass compared to a normal magazine release, but it did the job.

I refer to them in the past tence, because as of 2017 they are now considered to be detachable magazines, so they don't work anymore. The only option now is to replace your pistol grip with some horrific abomination of a grip. However, that only works for rifles with removable pistol grips like ARs and AKs. If your rifle has an integrated pistol grip like a Cx4, you're shit out of luck unless you want to do some serious gunsmithing blasphemy.

some do, some don't best to just use the round that your weapon is supposed to fire or is stamped on the side.

It's the height.
I get looks all the time when I'm around people below 6ft 5.

Manlets can't handle it.
And women are hardwired to want a man with power and height is power.

>This was said by a technically functioning adult, able to work and exchange the funds earned there to pay for rent and food.

It just happens, just like that. And there's no end to it either.

/k/ has never been good with accepting the dirt of humanity.

Well honestly, I can get that. I mean, I DON'T get how you wouldn't check to make 100% sure with a magnum rifle, but my Mark V in .300 WBY only says ".300 magnum" with weatherby in scroll right above it.

So it does say "Weatherby .300 Mag", but it looks like the gun is saying "I'm a Weatherby, and I shoot .300 Mag"

Not totally out of whack.

or you could just register it as an assault weapon and keep all the evil features

I think so too. My eyesight is quite good.

this is why I'm too scared to buy a gun because I know the gun store employees will judge me for being a loser

Maybe. Could be. I am 6' 6", not fat nor bodybuilder but a "hiker", which is what I like to do.

That's how I got access to private shooting ranges, by meeting other outdoors people out in the wilderness.

And that's how I met my gf too. She's a genuine /an/, kek.

True, except you have to keep your bullet button on, plus the host of other insane limitations such as the state taking it and destroying it once you die.

If I could remove the bullet button once it was registered I'd consider registering ONE of my lowers, but I'm not going to do that just to keep a bullet button that I shouldn't even have to use anyway.
