Between the complete ineptitude of the employees, and the, shall we say constant overpricing, I won't spend another dime in there. Even if it was "free".
If, I need a good laugh, I'll go in and check them out. But, that would be it.
Please don't bash retailers. Many members of this very site are retailers themselves. Where would we be without retailers?Quote:

What documentation is acceptable to demonstrate proof of residency for handgun purchasers?

It's number 33.

Why do I have to show proof of address if the address on my identification doesn't match where I live? Why isn't a post office box good enough for an address?
-All federal firearms dealers are required to make sure that the purchaser's correct and current residence address are listed on the form. Since a post office box doesn't indicate residence, it is unacceptable for address purposes. If your primary identification does not show your current residence address, you must show proof of address through an acceptable secondary form of identification.
Neither of those are Colorado, and California has notoriously strict gun laws (obviously).
I have purchased many firearms from dealers, and the only place I was asked for a utility bill was at Gander.
The 2nd one specifically says it is federal law that an address has to be verified.
I see that no where.Quote:

A month or so I had a Saturday to kill while my wife was hosting a hen party. I went to GM and they had a "special sale" on Ruger LC9's for $369 that ended that day. I passed and went to SW who had them on sale for $339 but they said they were out but would check in the back for the days shipment. The mgr. came back and said they had 20 and could I wait while they logged one in for me. As I was filling out the paperwork I mentioned GM's "special sale" price the mgr. said "that's higher than our regular price".
A year or so ago I did purchase a gun at GM because it was the only one I could find in town. I went through the same BS regarding an address change on the back of my DL and they wouldn't accept the new address on my CCW. I had to go to the service desk and buy a $5 habitat stamp but they took the $5 off the price of the gun.
I will give Gander one +1 to offer it's -100. I was in there looking for a scope and I noticed on the way in that they changed their sign. "All firearms must be checked in with customer service when entering the store. This does not apply to concealed carry permit holders."
