Hello everyone,
Just wanted to share what I saw at the Kearny Mesa Turner's on a recent trip to that store. Just like the title says, saw a employee handle a firearm that made me wanna yank him out back and teach him a few lessons on what and what not to do while handling a firearm.
I was in there just this past Monday at around 2:30ish as it was my day off and I hadn't been in this store in a few months and thought I'd just drop in to see what the stock was like. I'll say there was plenty stock which I thought was good as its showing we may be possibly getting back to normal in regards to firearm availability in today's time.
I saw a customer wearing a black shirt inquiring about a used firearm, a Sig Sauer P220 Equinox in .45acp and it was a consignment gun. I know this as I saw it in the display case as well. The customer asked to see a couple of those used pistols including a revolver.
As I stood back and watched the customer check out the firearms, he wanted to see the Sig which by the way is a really beautiful pistol. So the employee grabs the Sig and as he's holding it, turns towards the window facing out towards the parking lot, he brings the Sig down towards his waist and kinda towards his back pocket...and then rams the Sig in a downward motion in an attempt to rack the slide as if trying to be cool and show off. I don't remember what that motion or technique is called but by God did he do it in a incredibly unsafe manner.
I saw that and was horrified that the employee not only do that in front of a customer including me as well, but he did it to a firearm that essentially does not belong to him or the store. I saw that and was just like...wow.
I turned around and walked out. I didn't want to be anywhere near crap like that and certainly do not have any respect for anyone who can't handle a firearm in a safe manner especially if you're the one trying to sell it.
I tried numerous times in reporting and notifying their corporate office but no one has returned my calls.
