Seems that Glock has some unreasonable requests regarding your personal information and at least Trop's would not be intimidated - LINK to the story.

You can guess where my next purchase will be

You can bet it won't be a Glock

Get an M&P!  You won't be dissatisfied.  Any caliber

I just sent them an email thanking them for their stance.  I've been meaning to get out to them for a long time.  I am definitely going there soon and will definitely be buying a non-Glock firearm from them!

On the chance they might read here, good job folks!

Lol I divided by zero... I'm shooting for them this year and I'm shooting Glock in USPSA. Whoooooops.

Good for Trop, but who puts their SSN on the 4473? I never do as it's not a requirement for the form. If the shop thinks they need it and won't sell without it I take my business somewhere else.

I wonder why Glock is requesting the information in the first place? I am sure Glock is just trying to protect their income and Trop is trying to protect its customers. I side with neither on this subject I am sure there is a better way to get the job done and maybe the two need to figure it out rather than cause the uproar over privacy. Privacy concerns are a huge joke anyway, 98% of people are on facebook and they put whatever they want on there just giving themselves away to predators. This whole thing is over exaggerated to be honest. Its Glock, what is Glock going to do with the information, it seems like Glock is just making sure their eggs are accounted for properly.

Trop is a pretty big store with a decent selection. The employees are always friendly, but if you go when its busy and it always seems to be busy it can be tough to get help even though they are well staffed. Lanco tactical is just down the street from them, thats another great gun shop.
