Guy comes in dressed fairly nice but seems a little "off" looking at Hi Points
he looks at a carbine makes a lap of the store and leaves 2 minutes later he comes in and asked if he left any paperwork in here Told him no and he leaves dropping mumbled f-bombs as he leaves which turn into screamed F-bombs once he got outside I make a lap of the store to see if he left anything find nothing another 3-4 minutes later he come back still agitated asks if we have seen an RX script anywhere told him no Said he lost the RX for his pain killers and he is fucked if he can't find that starts freaking out a bit saying he's screwed he then takes off his shirt turns his pockets inside out ( contents a wallet , a phone , a toy bat mobile and some keys ) rips his shoes and socks off and starts looking in them finding nothing he starts digging around in his underwear in his crotch at this point I'm just looking at the guy thinking WTF watching his hands with my hand on my pistol boss comes out of his office at this point with his pistol behind his back Right as my boss is just opening his mouth to say something guy's woman comes in waving a piece of paper saying she found it due scoops up all his shit and hauls ass out the door this all occurred within about 10 seconds then I went and got lunch |

Should have told him you just swept the shop and emptied everything in the dumpster.

Sorry about that glock19.com. I just get a little antsy if I misplace my prescription.

Not the strangest gun shop story I've ever heard, but it's up there somewhere.

Meth is a hell of a drug
Quoted: A "toy Bat Mobile"?? er ok Yeah, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, Adam West, or Michael Keaton batmobile? |
|
So what you're saying is same shit different day?
I hope you had a nice lunch at least.
|
|
No dollar bills thrown by anyone?
That meth isn't going to buy itself you know. |
|
That just had to be a Walmart story.
Impeach Obama or the Good of the Poor. |

You know, if something like this happens and you anticipate making a thread about it, you should know beforehand to snap a pic of the waitress who brought your lunch to you.
C'mon man.

Quoted: What round for tweeker? Meh you could just carpet bomb this whole fucking town just make the evacuation order in English and before noon and that would pretty much do the trick |
|
I've been to your store. I'd say that's a typical Bullet Hole customer....
Also, you guys openly pack heat like oven doors, so I dunno if that's where I'd start stripping and raving about drugs. Let me ask you this. Would you rather have the same guy come back and do the same thing every hour or one North O resident coming in asking "how much it cost to rent dat choppah, yo"? |
|
I think I might have been inclined to draw down on him the third time he came into the store.
|
|
"Your hand comes outta your underwear holding ANYTHING and you're gonna die!!!" |
|
Your store is about the only thing I will ever go to that town for.
|

Ah, meth. The scourge of small town Nebraska.
My mom works at a farm supply store and used to call the police on the tweakers who would come in and buy lots of chemicals. She stopped after the local judicial system either refused to prosecute or let them off with probation. They let the meth heads run loose anyway, so no reason to have them know she reported them. |

Makes me glad to be an FFL and not an ER doc. They deal with that shit every shift.

Not a gun shop story, but a work story.
Walking down the aisle at work to get to the warehouse, a man stops me. "I thought your bathrooms were at the back of the store!!!" "What?" "Your bathrooms!!! I thought they were back there!!!" "No their up front by the registers" "Yeah I couldn't make it, I'm really sorry... I..uhh... I shit in one of the changing rooms...." *man walks off* |

The owner of one of the small shops here in Lincoln told me the same thing. He stopped carrying Hi-Points because they attracted the kind of customer he really didn't want to be associated with.

Also, dey blow in half on occasion. No, SL asked about Hipoints not Glocks. I don't have a lot of experience with Hipoints, but the ones I've shot have always went bang when the trigger was pulled. And their carbine is a joy to shoot. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
