Thread: WTF

i have had 4 times, had a customer enter the store and hand over a loaded firearm with a chambered round.
numerous times i have had loaded mags inserted into a firearm but the chamber clear.
i once took from a customer, a loaded firearm with a chambered round and safety off who was waving it at me, discribing the fault with the rifle.
sometimes, you see some scary shit on the other side of the counter.

Ridiculous.

I can't fathom the stupidity of some people. Bugger that.

I would be growling at anyone sweeping me with a firearm no matter what state it was in.
It has probably happened but I can't recall anyone I enjoy shooting sports with doing it off the top of my head.

maybe he was doing a hold up

Why would you NEED to take ANY ammo into a shop for ANY reason....if a firearm is to be repaired / whatever I am sure that unless the ammo was stuck in the weapon...the gunny would have ammo available for testing or whatever....report every incident to the polis....

incompatable ammo with that gun?
bad batch of ammo?
gunny dose not have the same brand?
can you check my mates reloads?
there is many reasons why ammo needs to come in.
i find ammo is more often the cause of the fault than the firearm.

Idiots, I must admit I find gun safety pretty bad with rifles, compared to the UK, when I did my NZ course the instructed was telling us that, they used to use confiscated guns to demonstrate different actions, this was stopped when a rifle was brought up from storage at the police station, and was found to be loaded, so the gun was confiscated, stored and signed out, while all the time being loaded.
As for shotguns at one clay shooting club in Hants in the UK, 7 shotguns were found to be loaded while left unattended , instant confiscation of all weapons owned, license revoked and criminal charges brought.
