        Please don't tell me there's the idiot mark on the other side.

        Can't go wrong with a 1911.

          I'm 99% sure you only need to buy a lock for "NEW" guns, not PPT or consignment.....but what the heck right? nice gun.

You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.

              You can and should argue. I have in the past, do your ppts somewhere else. If the gun comes with a lock then you shouldn't have to buy another one. Donate the lock to the store and then offer to buy it back from them for a dollar. Congrats on the new purchase!

                Yeah at $10 a pop it isn't going to break the bank but it's the principle.I have more locks than guns at this point.

                  I swear gun locks are going to become like trading cards for California gunnies.

                    1. Buy lock from Big 5.
                    2. Show receipt and retrieve gun.
                    3. Return lock to Big 5.
                    4. Lather, rinse, repeat for other PPT's in the future.
                    5. Win.

                      I went to Walmart with that intention and I guess they don't sell them anymore.

                        For anyone buying old guns from Big 5

                        When I got a Mosin at Big 5, they forced me to take a lock even though I also have a bunch sitting doing nothing. I didn't want to try to return with my receipt, so instead I returned it a without a receipt for store credit and put it towards a basketball. Big 5 has useful stuff other than guns :-)

                          So can I return all these to big 5 without a receipt even though they aren't from there?

                              Stop at Wally World on the way to the gun shop, buy a lock.
                              Show the receipt and lock, then return the lock on the way home.
