    In two visits to gun city auckland, buying 3 rifles, the two bolt actions were attempted to be handed across the counter with mags in and bolts closed. They also refitted them to the rifles once purchased. I told them in no uncertain or easily misconstrued terms that I would not accept them in that state. The dumbfounded looks I received back confirmed their stupidity and complete lack of knowledge regarding gun safety. The second visit to purchase a semi auto, the action was never cycled to show it was empty and the mag was put in the rifle before they put it into the gun bag. Again saying "I'm not taking that" was met with a confused look. It's not that hard to train a monkey, surely there is some gun safety taught to a gun shop's staff?
