Handguns in gun store display counters pointing towards customers?

Two monks were walking along a river when they came upon a woman drowning in the frigid water.

Student knew that the monks were forbidden to touch women, and did not know what to do. He stood on the side of the river, unable to act.

Master lept into the water, carried the woman out, set her down, and calmly continued his walk.

Miles later, Student could stand it no longer. "Master, we are forbidden to touch women, yet you carried her like it meant nothing! How can this be?"

Master struck Student with his stick. "I put her down at the side of the river. You have been carrying her ever since."

It's a contest. First customer that crawls past the counter below the muzzles wins a "SAFEST GUN OWNER OF THE YEAR" award. And a Glock.

It's a shell game. ONE IS loaded. Can you find it?

This does violate the first rule of handgun safety. They do this to fill more guns on display(I think), what do you think of this common practice?

jesus Calguns has jumped the shark with this thread

Don't worry OP, the Display cases in the gunstore are made of bullet proof glass

[BadKitty]

As long as the employees ALWAYS do a chamber check by racking the slide to ensure that the weapon is clear when taking it out of the case as well as chamber checking when returning the weapon into the case It doesn't bother me.

This.

Pretty common from what i've seen and am not botherd by it.. But Try having the owner of a gun store point a ruger LCR crimson at your face to show another customer The "pretty Laser" lower to tell you it's not loaded then proceed to point it back at you head..needless to say i will never go back and the guy should not have an FFL for numerous other reasons.

They are put in there that way because they handle is facing the clerk, and that is where you pick up a gun by.

It is not dangerous for a weapon to be pointed at anyone when it is unloaded and unhandled.

Yes I know we assume all weapons are cocked and locked, but still they are only inanimate objects and pose no danger until they enter a hand.

A gunstore hand is probably the safest hand you can find, at least within the store.

No gunstore owner is going to have ammunition anywhere near the display guns, and it's more important where the gun is pointed when they are picked up.

p.s. don't give the "liberals" any ideas. Next thing you know they will demand all business's to buy expensive bullet-proof display fronts for gun shops.
