Paranoid walking from gun shop

[smith and wesson]

Anyone ever get a bit paranoid when leaving the gun shop to your car, carrying your giant rifle box or pistol case?

Most of the time I purchased at a range with a private parking lot.
Other times yeah, paranoid

Lol glad I'm not the only one. Most times I'm thinking man I can get ambushed here. Sucks were not able to conceal carry without a permit.

I wonder if anyone has ever gotten robbed.

I've definitely gotten some looks leaving a gun store with some of the more obvious packaging, or even just a big Glock labeled bag one place gave me. Sometimes you can almost see what they're thinking "weird case, weird case has a lock on it, oh crap that's a gun store, oh, it's a police supply store, whew."

In terms of being robbed, less so than hitting the ATM.

Paranoid? No. A bit more vigilant in paying attention to my surroundings? Yes. No different then going to the range with firearms in my vehicle. Make sure every thing is out of sight or covered and if a quick stop is involved vehicle is secure.

Not once

Once I had to pick up a replica MP40 from the Gardena PD that they had recovered after a burgary at my house. They just handed it to me, I asked for some kind of covering but they told me I wouldn't have a problem walking back to my car about2 blocks away. I passed about a half a dozen people but nobody gave me a second look. That was a really weird feeling. This was back in early 90's.

Heck No!

But I do feel paranoid when...

Now that big brother knows I own another gun, and that I'm on another List. Having concerns what neighbors see when packing up range supplies & equipment. What ifs in transit.

My biggest concern is knowing that I might need the thing while it's still in the box.

Same as SWalt.

I definitely check my surroundings more and look for anyone just sitting around.
Also look for any car following me just in case.

Paranoid, no, just cautious.

If I'm picking up a gun, I'll wait until I can park right in front of the store's entrance. Never around the block or down the street.

I'm always on super alert. A good guy with a gun, locked in a damn case. Isn't a good match for a bad guy not FOLLOWING THE STUPID AZZ LAWS.

[92E2]

Never crossed my mind.

[baggss]

Nope. I always leave the gun shop with the gun loaded and in plain sight. That way everyone knows that I'm armed and won't **** with me while I get to my car....
