I had been to Cabela's several times during working days, on the way to or from business trips...
...and had not encountered this problem. Probably because 1.) there is nobody there at 12 noon on a Tuesday, and 2.) anyone there at that time is probably retired, and has a few decades of common sense under their belt.
Doesn't it just figure that, the one time I take my wife, on a weekend, the place is packed with toothless bozos pointing all manner of firearms in every direction.
Then there are the macho guys pointing to every pistol in the case while saying "that Colt is a good TACTICAL pistol..." "that Sig is a good TACTICAL pistol..." "That HK is..." Well, you get the idea. Gee... and I thought all firearms capable of firing a projectile were "tactical."
Anyway, my wife and I stopped to admire something
(I don't remember what, but it was across from the rifle racks). Well, I hear this unusual noise. "clump-schluk, CLICK"
"clump-schluk, CLICK"
"clump-schluk, CLICK"
Well, I look left and I look right, and I don't see where this is comming from... but there it is again... "clump-schluk, CLICK"
"clump-schluk, CLICK"
Right behind me, about 20 feet away is one of the "TACTICAL" guys from the pistol counter cycling a bolt action rifle "clump-schluk" pointing it at my wife's back and dry firing it "CLICK"
Let me tell you, I was p!ssed!
I was headed over there to give Mr. Tactical a piece of my mind
, and most likely would have ended up shoving that rifle right up his hole-ster
but after doing a ten-count, I decided that me having harsh words with a man 6' 5", 275 lbs, with an IQ of 12 (who thinks he's a Navy SEAL
) wouldn't really be something my wife would care to see.
I just hope Rambo carries his "TACTICAL" 1911 Mexican-style, in the front, and with the safety OFF! Darwin awards, you know?
