Bass pro shops hunting section at Concord NC. This is a complaint. Yes, you are selling lot of guns. But why do people bring their guns in from home to the store? I saw a guy today who took his pistol in and even though the sales person had to bring it up (i saw him), this guy wanted to have his hands all over his gun. Now I have brought my rifles in for scopes and boresite, and hey- no big deal. He obviously was not getting what he wanted, and I do not want someone who is losing patience or temper in a store where me and my kids shop with HIS gun easily accessed. We don't know if he has a clip in his pocket, or if he will pull off those cheap trigger locks and go crazy. I felt very uncomfortable because my wife and I had our 2 small children in the store. I am a gun owner and have no problem with handling or being around them, but this guy was unreal. "Don't touch my gun, this is my gun, don't take it over there, don't move it back there, give it to me!!" This is what he was yelling. Seriously, what's your problem buddy? If it means that much to you, leave it at home. And if your parents didn't raise you well enough to not pitch a temper tantrum, leave yourself at home. And you guys at Bass Pro Shops, you are to be BLAMED for not kicking this guy out by his rear end. Is it worth a dollar to allow someone to freak out all of your other customers? I understand you are at work and have to keep your wits, but you shouldn't possibly risk my children's lives by letting people like this throw a fit without showing them the door. If I ever see someone this irate with a gun nearby that clearly belongs to him, I will call the cops if you don't. Better safe than sorry, and I don't feel safe in Bass Pro, then I won't feel sorry for never going back!!
