After seeing how much people enjoyed my very first post on THR, I figured I'd create a similar one. What's the oddest thing you've heard or seen in a gun shop.
Bear in mind that this refers to things that have occurred in a gun shop, sporting goods store, or even in a sporting goods section of a Walmart, Rural King, etc. or really anywhere that predominately sells firearms.
Mine would be something I heard at one of my local pawn shops (the only FFL close to where I live) a few weeks ago. I went in to pick up a gun I had ordered and was waiting on all the checks and stuff to go through when a guy comes in with who I assume was his father. Them and the owner make some small talk about this and that. As they're leaving, the father turns to the owner and proceeds to tell him about how he has a .410 Remington 870. He said "it hasn't even had a shell put in it" and how "someone offered him $1500 for it" and he told them "No deal". No hate to the guy, I just found it funny him saying both of those things, I guess because they kind of reminded me of my grandpa.
