Is it bad to bumble around in gun stores? I feel like a retard doing it but i like looking at the guns im too poor to afford
Gun ship etiquette
As long as you don't act like a retard and give off an impression that you're interested in buying.
Ask to look at them, appreciate their value, hand them back to the employee. No big deal right?
dumb frogposter
FUCK THIS FUCKING FROGPOSTER IN THE ASSHOLE, SHOVE IT ALL IN NO HOLDING BACK.
In most it's not a big deal. Just don't loiter there forever constantly asking to finger fuck guns you're obviously never gonna buy. Basically it's fine to browse a bit and ask questions but don't excessively waste their time.
sage for the racism frog tho
As long as you buy something at the end of the day (even if it's something small, like a box of JHPs, a boresnake, a range bag, etc.), I always felt it was reasonable to take a look even at guns out of your budget.
This is more true for local gun stores, where the guy behind the counter might directly feel the money you're giving to him. For big chains (Big 5, Turner's, etc.), the employees get paid hourly no matter what, so you can get away with a bit more.
Yeah when I worked at Big 5, I was always happy to get a customer at the gun counter no matter how long they took or if they even bought anything. Every minute spent shooting the shit about guns is one less minute in Footwear.
I always want to go to the local gun stores, but have no money and no license yet. But I really just like looking, but I always think the attendents will think I am retarded.
I am going to a bow store soon though, to purchase something for my birthday. I am beyond keen to actually buy something for once.
That’s a bee
just bee urself
stupid dumb frogposting scum, fuck off back to plebbit where you belong.
just frog yourself
No
not a frog it's a bug
Get a fucking job and buy one later.
Some shops will take offense at you finferfucking centerfire gats.
Some shops will treat you like a GRIDs-ridden leper for asking to see a gat outside your "price range". In reality, most people are only an inch above concrete coons and will happily go into the wrong kind of debt buying shit they don't need. Every time you see Cletus Jr. the III rocking a new kimber think of all the child support that went unpaid.
Some shops won't let you do a field strip (let alone a detail one) even when you show a clear intent to buy.
Imagine if you had to buy a used car going only by looking at it from 10 ft. away. Shit would be retarded. Gunshops are retarded. Fuck them and only abide by the golden 3.
Don't dress like a fucking methhead or nigger and your average LGS and especially big box store gun salesman will literally talk to you for a fucking hour just to shitpost IRL about guns. Now don't be a dick and tie up a LGS owner proprietor if there are other guys in the store, but there usually aren't other guys in the store. And finger fucking the hot new _______ and buying a cleaning kit, ammo, range time, or insert literally any product is the bread and butter of a firearm oriented business. A poorfag buying a RIA 1911 and a richfag buying a Kimber customshop both pay the same hourly range fee and pay the same price for ammo. Profit margins on guns themselves aren't very high and something cheap as hell can make the store owner more money than something expensive. 2 niggers buying hipoints and managing to pass a background check makes a store more money than one glock sale.
The main thing is "don't look like you're going to fail a background check". If you could be featured on "people of Walmart" you're going to get tense, judgmental service and heavily prescreened by the guy behind the counter knowing law of averages wise tweaker assholes never pass the background check.
BATS ARENT BUGS
Just buy some ammo or a pocket knife when you're done fingerfucking everything to make up for the trouble

>go "oh well" and cop a pair of overpriced socks and a leather belt that you don't really need for $69.99 total
In short, don't be an autistic fag and don't enable shitty stores with your 'tism.
it's not a bug, it's a bee. bees make hunny. bees are mammals.
Dumb poster in general.
Do you not know how commerce works? You are not required to purchase shit.
A lot of retail businesses will have people that pop into have a chat and etc. If you're not there to buy just keep out of the way of customers who are.
Pick up a mag or a box of ammo here and there and when you save up for a gun, buy it from them. Frankly they make more money off accessories, mags and shit anyway. Dealer prices for firearms aren't nearly as good as people think they are.
In other words, don't be a frogposter IRL
Muzzle sweep the shit out of him first
I'm a 45-70 autist. I own a 1886 for general loads and a Ruger no.1 for the 500gr loads. I work in boots for 16 hours on work days and I'll be damned if I wear them on my day off

If you tarry too long without buying anything, they’ll call local police. If you take too long and act weird and fumble or act nervous, and try to buy a gun, they’ll call the fbi.
Most shops don't mind you checking out the expensive stuff you can't afford. Just be sure to follow these rules:
>When handed a gun, make sure it's unloaded by pointing it at the employee's face so they can see down the barrel to check for bullets
>If you can't work the action, don't ask for help and waste the employee's time. Just smack the gun hard as you can on the counter. Guns are durable.
>If you can't pass a background, just have a friend or family member go into the store with you, pick out the gun you want, and say, "They'll buy that for me."
>If you plan on buying a gun for defense, be sure to ask how many shots it will take to kill a man. Different guns have different power stats.
>If you bring a gun in to sell, make sure it's loaded when you hand it to the employee. Loaded guns sell for more than unloaded guns.
