Anti-gun Gun Store

[xSlapshotx]

I live within driving distance of this shop. And while I would love to see another gun store in the area, I will not support this one. Picking and choosing which guns you will transfer seems hypocritical, and not a good business model. I give this shop less than a year depending on how many panties they can sell.

Anti-gun Gun Store

OP should have the sense to post anti hunting ffl not anti gun. Inaccurate.

Yep

[sixoclockhold]

nope

Here is a pic of a rifle he sold to a "Mohammed B." from Yelp:


Maybe Mohammed was not planning to use it to hunt animals.

RUger 10-22 looks like, with some cheap scope on top.

And doubly upset if a Ford dealer wouldn't sell me a truck because I planned to haul my killed game to the tagging station with it.

A gun is a gun. This shop refused service because of what OP wanted to do with the gun.

A joke of the first order. I don't care if they stopped in to say 'Hi' in this thread. I'd never set foot in the dump, and I'll make sure every person I know hears this story.

Christian cake bakers can be forced to make cakes for gay weddings but this guy gets a pass on a 'hunting' rifle? Give me a break.

Note to the FFL: you're in the wrong business.

Yep, basically this happens all the time, and it's practically encouraged.

OP: "I experienced some bad customer service from a gun store"
Your Drunk Uncle: "Blah blah blah, stop whining about it, nancyboy and go take your business someplace slightly less crappy. It's your fault for having expectations."

Later...
Calguns community: "Why aren't new shooters taking up the sport? Why don't people vote against gun control in CA?"

*sigh* It's a marketing problem, and we do it to ourselves.

I don't have a dog (or deer) in this fight, but not wanting to sell a type of gun is indeed anti-gun no matter the reason behind it. Feinstein also doesn't want to ban ALL guns, just some "common sense" types.

A private business isn't required to sell anything they don't want to sell.

Unless it's a Christian business not wanting to sell a wedding cake for a non-wedding ceremony...

Besides, nobody is saying that the FFL should sell all types of guns or that there should be legal action against him, just that such a position is anti-gun and it's up to the people to decide whether to patronize the store or not.

That's also why I commented on "outing" - what's there to out if this is a public policy?

Shop isn't anti-gun, it's anti-hunting.

Bloomberg isn't anti-gun, he is anti-murder.

They sell guns and do transfers. Just not for the type of guns you want. Would you complain on the interent because 7-11 doesnt stock the particular soda you prefer?

Actually I would. I have been searching in vain for Diet Sun Drop in SoCal. I have seen various gun shops be discriminatory toward various guns in my time by I have never seen one be rabidly anti hunting. One put down my purchase of a "Russian POS". It was a Finn Mosin Nagant price at half or less of going rate.

I've had a female mall ninja gun shop clerk disparage and put down my purchase of a 25 ACP pistol and a C&R German 7.65 pistol because they did not meet her standards for pistols. I put her in her place somewhat but didn't want a full blown argument. Little did she know the 25 auto was priced 1/4-1/3 of going rate.

I just didn't specify what type of guns they are anti. definitely anti though.

It's okay, their loss on easy money. just ordered from UGI

Only in Leninist California could a gun-store have such an assbackwards and naive mindset about firearms.

I see at least 5 hunting rifles on their Yelp page. You can call them lead-dispensers if you wish, heavy metal displacement tools, or pew-pew puff-machines, but they can be and often are, used for hunting.

To think anything otherwise is quite immature and childish about purposes of firearms. I get the impression the brunt of their gee-whiz knowledge about firearms and applied use primarily came from video-games.

It seems they deem firearms to be playthings and novelty toys, baubles and gimbals, which is quite indicative by their combinatory marketing with other unrelated novelties; I would not be surprised if they also carry rubber Ninja throwing stars, tactical nail-clippers, and switch-blade combs as well.

To pretend the firearms they sell may not be used for hunting makes me think they may not even be safe around firearms, as if they don't see such firearms capable of injuring or killing something to the point that a casual attitude and unsafe practices are the norm.

These are weapons, for "tactical" or hunting purposes; they are not Nerf toys nor are they something you had an orgasm about while playing Call of Duty.

Afterall - I see they have the ridiculous "R.I.P" ammo in the display case under Mohammed's rifle in that pic above. That conveys where their presumptions and knowledge about firearms likely resides.

Silly is as silly does.

Agree. That is further aggravated when they start dictating the "use" of a gun that should be prohibited, even though the guns they sell quite proficiently could be used for hunting.

"I sell cars for waxing and listening to music, not for driving."

That is a good deal silly and unrealistic, but it's no different than this store saying they don't sell guns for hunting; when in fact, they do.

Primo Tactical, we need to work on some of your definitions, starting with "disrespect".

Only 5x what it should cost lol.

Hmm, that's the same crap they posted on their yelp page. I guess they left it on facebook?

It's honestly kind of funny how this shop manages to highlight just wtf is wrong with "gun culture" in CA. On the one hand we have the fudds who don't think anyone should have an evil black rifle because you can't hunt with it. Then we've got these vegans who insist they don't sell anything used to hunt.
