So I stopped in to check out the handguns, pick up some off, and got a little toy for the kid while I was there.

On my way to the cashier a white shirt (manager I presume) came up with a very concerned look on his face and says:
Him:Excuse me? Is that a gun?

Me: Yes

Him: Is it real?

Me: Yes

Him: Are you with law.. are you some sort of police officer?

Me: No. Open Carry is legal in WI, and I was under the impression Fleet Farm knows the laws and is fine with open carry.

Him: Oh. Ok. (visibly worried and distraught over the gun, and he walks away)

I proceed to the check out and leave, and everything is fine.

So what gives?

Pretty much any store will price match. :) If they want to post, they are more than welcome to do so.

Manager pees sitting down.
Wanna clarify your position a bit, before some of the ladies around here (who also carry, & pee sitting down) get it into our heads to be irritated with you?

The guy wasn't familiar w/ store policy or state law.
It upset him that a peaceful customer was armed.
Hopefully he learned something.
