But, in case it does, that is why it should always be checked prior to handing to a potential customer. I could maybe see something like this happening at a gun show...but at a licensed dealer store? Never.
AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME....anyone...and I mean ANYONE trained in firearm safety/use...rule #1...never point a gun at anything you don't want to kill, and always assume the gun is loaded...johnny should fucking know better.
I agree , I show clear on every firearm, every time ! Even if the customer wants to see the same gun several times as they are making their mind up. It gets cleared again and again and again.
The only loaded firearms in the shop are the ones we have on our sides, but ALL are treated as if they are loaded.
ETA . . . It really is amazing how many times a day I get swept with a firearm. Customers have a bad habit of turning back and forth as they talk with their friends, aiming, etc, all the while they have their booger hook on the bang stick.
