Well...went to the Fredericksburg Gun Show today for the sole purpose of finding and buying a Ruger LCP. There were only 2 vendors selling them...Dark Sun and the other vendor's name escapes me, but his prices were way too high. Dark Sun's price wasn't great, but considering I was having a difficult time finding this pistol locally, I decided to buy it from them (and apparently, so did every other person that was buying something from them). Anyway...I was totally turned off by Dark Sun and will not ever buy another firearm from them again. Here's how it all went down...
After I've scowered every vendor at the show and found only the two, I decide to go to Dark Sun. It was quite a busy day, so the fact that they took their sweet time actually getting to buying customers didn't bother me too much, but once I got someone's attention, I was catered to pretty efficiently.
Anyway, after walking around for a bit, I come back to wait for my background check to come back on my purchase and me and my son are looking around their table at other merchandise and what not. When all of a sudden, I start seeing one of the employees begin handling his firearm behind the table showing people the weapon, etc. Not that big of a deal, really. He seemed to be mostly safe with it. I go about my business and continue looking at the merchandise and I look up and he whips out a *loaded* magazine flops it down on the table and takes his firearm out of his holster and sweeps both me and my son!!!! I immediately grab my son and move on down to the other end of the table.
We're at the end of the table watching him put firearms in holsters on either side of his body and pulling them as if he were practicing a double draw, but treating the firearms as if they were toys. Well, I was so livid at the blatant disregard and lack of respect for people around him that I *almost* requested my identification back so that I could take my business elsewhere. It was at that point when my background check was done and the sale was now in progress. Well, since I had already waited this long for it, I decided I would go ahead and buy the pistol. However, I am vowing never to spend another dollar at Dark Sun. I was extremely disappointed in the behavior of this employee.
Has anyone ever had a similar experience with Dark Sun?
