I was tire kicking at gander in aurora a few days ago, and the dipstick's behing the counter were trying to sell a .357 sig to some guy and his buddy, and was telling them how they are over 3000fps. I felt like stepping in and saying something but I just kept walking. should I have said something? or just let the uninformed consumer just learn his lesson the hard way like I did? he did buy it by the way.

.357 going 3000 fps...

I would've laughed so hard I'd get kicked out....

I would have laughed as well and said "maybe on a planet with the gravity of the moon"

I find the f**ktards at Gander Mountain to be less informed than the uninformed people they are selling to.

[Wolfen]

what are the prices like. I can deal with ignorance if prices are good.

Yeah, the uneducated morons who work behind gun counters in these big chains make me sick. I probably get funny looks at Sportsman's when I walk by the gun counter with my fingers in my ears while yelling "LA LA LA LA LA LA!" If these panzy ass shipping companies or BATFE (whoever the responsible party is) would eliminate the hazmat fee for shipping powder & primers - I would just buy it on-line. It bothers me greatly when I go into a gun store and I know more about the product than the guy trying to sell it to me.

Come to think of it, a good reply to that idiot who made that statement might've been: "No silly, only H&K barrels forged by Valkyries can withstand that level of tolerences...duh, everyone knows that!"

[Ah Pook]

I can't go to the Thornton Sportsman's WHSE firearm counter anymore. It's hard to keep the mouth shut sometimes.

Only 3000fps? I thought they were faster. OMG, people will day anything to sound like they know it all. FYI customer... The ammo is more expensive than .45 ammo.

[sniper7]

you should have jumped in and told them you thought they were around 4000 FPS and had inferno bullets that will set things ablaze.

[King]

Ha, what a joke. Thats faster than some of the 5.56 I shoot. I hate when people either lie or pretend to know what they are talking about
