I only ask because I almost went toes with the dude with the pony tail for insulting my wife and making her feel stupid.
Long story short I was looking to replace a POS Walther P22 with a real gun for my wife. The guy upfront was nice (even though not very gun smart) and so we went to the range to see what ones she rent to try. I personally wanted to give her the best chance at finding something that would fit her. I was talking to her and that guy starting telling me everything he didn't know and what I HAVE AND NEED to do. I asked him a question about an FN five-seven and he barked at me "It's a gun it shoots". I had enough and started away when he looked at my wife who was over by the guns (while I was a little ways away) and starts making fun of how she is dressed and other comments that well....if he wasn't in a gun store.......I do go to Sams sometimes, but I choose not to go in range...
Any idea who it was? Can you describe him? I can't picture anyone up there with a pony tail, and I think we know all of the guys.
Older grumpy looking guy. He had a pony tail as I recall, but that could be wrong. No facial hair, somewhat baulding white hair, and OCed a Kimber (I THINK left side).
Hmm, left side carry of a Kimber and older (in the way you described) I think would be Tom - no pony tail btw.
and, this is not to be confused with the Tom that works the shop counter.
I'm not looking to push this into a did/didn't happen discussion, I just wanted to know more about who you were talking about. Thanks for clarifying.
I will say that "the range" Tom is known as "Happy Jack" amongst the crew, and that there's some long history here. I'll leave it at that. There's also a reason that he never works the counter.
You got the bad seed in a very good apple. Tom works Sundays these days... I think you'll have a different experience if you re-visit.
btw, the counter guy you talked to... If you think he could be classified as looking like a "short Santa Clause" then that'd be Bill. Good guy, but he loves any gun in the case that you ask to see.
