Scary situation

Definitly a hazardous job. Think about how easy it would be for a whackjob to go into Academy with a pocket full of 12ga buckshot, ask the clerk in guns to let him look at a shotgun, load with 3 shells in about 3 seconds, and really start some bad stuff?

It's already happened once.

Bad situation all the way around. I think maybe the guy was earnest in needing some help, but went about it the wrong way ... that's for sure. Good move on the employee's part for making the situation safe, as quickly as possible. I've never had a problem with the guys down at our Slidell Academy ... except the fact that they're always out of the gun I'm looking for.

One summer while I was going to UNO I worked for Purolator Armored Car. While I was driving my helper, who sat in the back, tried to pass me his cocked .38 through the drop slot because HE did not know how to uncock it. Just before I started they had a guy shoot himself while riding in the back.

If you guys aren't packing, and my guess is your not because of comapny policy or some bulls**t insurance constraint, you are helpless young man.

No, they think the cheap little plastic trigger guards are plenty enough to "protect" us. Although when we are showing someone the gun they are buying, it has no trigger lock. I have looked into it though, and it is against Academy policy for an employee to have a firearm on them in the building. Personally, I think its retarded that they won't even consider allowing someone to carry, even concealed, who works mainly the gun counter, who does have a CHP, and carries daily. That is their "rule" though. And believe me, I have contemplated the whole "would I rather get fired and prevent my own, or someone elses death/great bodily harm or would I rather be dead" to great extent on several ocassions. If I did carry concealed at work, the only person who would ever know would be me, unless of course a situation arose where having a job is the last thing I am worried about. Do I carry concealed at work? Of course not... that would be against the rules...

Well then, you could learn to be proficient at Chinese throwing stars!

Maybe deaf people shouldn't carry guns?

I sure don't think that's the case. You bring up some REALLY interesting points on people with certain conditions having to look at things differently. My brother's blind - so that decision is kinda made for him.

My stepmom did this same thing to me once. Cocked her snub nose taurus .38 and didn't know how to decock it so she brought it to me. Luckily she didn't point it at anyone. Quite the contrary, she was holding it like it was about to bite her at any second.

It is bad enough to not know how to decock one. It is worse to not know how to decock one and then, for some reason, cock one. Why?

Next time I'm near Martin Wine Cellar, I'll kill two birds with one stone... marginally acceptable Canadian blended whiskey (pretending to be Scotch), plus new pocket holster!
