I'll make this response guys.
She's asked to go shooting and handed it to me and i said sweet what's this for? She says well i told him I'm leaving him and i wanted a gun! I said oh .......! She says see i got a ccw purse too the guy said i can carry it in there and unzips it. I immediately told her return the purse cause that's not a good way cause its too slow i would help her pick one out or a purse holster. She says i really like the wood grips, is it a nice gun? I said yes, its nice but do you really plan on carrying this? Yes, i do someday, he told me i didn't even need a permit! I explained the permit to her and as i got to looking at it i said well the sights and such and then she shows me how it goes in the purse and the hammer snagged on the inside of the pocket. I said did he show you one like this and pulled mine out? J frame 642. She says no a black Ruger the same size and this one. He said S&W brand was better than Ruger and suggested this. I liked the grips and the way it looks and feels. She cocks the hammer back and dry fires and says i like i can do this cause its not so heavy! I nicely explained that she shouldn't SA fire it cause its not real life situation. She looks at mine and hers side by side and says i F up didn't I? I stood there for a minute and said you want my honest opinion? I said its a bit too pricy for your situation, I could have got you a used one or something else a little cheaper at a few mom and pop stores. Right now Cabelas wants over $400 for shields on sale and mom and pop stores have them $350 on sale with or without lasers. She says OMG I'm so sorry i wanted to do this on my own and i remember you guys having S&W brands so that's what i wanted. I nicely explained to her that a Taurus or used Smith or Ruger would have been just fine and maybe even a little automatic. She said the revolver was the ticket cause her dad always had one. I nicely explained how the price is higher than the LGS and the gun without a hammer and sights would be a bad ass ccw gun but i don't like adjustable sights or hammers cause they get caught on stuff. She said i will take it back tomorrow! I said if you want ill go too and tell the manager how the counter guy skipped over 10-15 other types of handguns to sell you an $800 gun. I honestly feel the guy figured ill sell her the most expensive revolver in the case other than say 5-6'' barreled guns.
I told her this morning if she is happy keep it and if she can afford it keep it. I told her at minimum ditch the purse. I also told her if she wanted to i would get 2-3 revolvers and automatics and she could try it. I told her would stand by her with whatever she wanted. As i said before i know 100% this guy sold her that gun cause of the price and not because he was helping her and that's what im most pissed about!
