Today while at the lgs a young female police officer came in and said that she wished to buy a rifle. The clerk showed her his rack of AR's and asked what her preference was. She replied, "I don't know. I don't know anything about guns." He recommended a Stag Arms as a hard service weapon. My heart sank, and I left. What bothers me most is that her sgt or the armorer or her training officer or somebody in the dept had not foreseen that some young officers are not gun savvy and that they need guidance. Instead she came in with her mother. I fear that she may fail to seek qualified training assistance. This young woman was offered a shit rifle for $850 plus tax. She could have bought a Colt for the same or less money through law enforcement channels. I feel bad for her.
