I heard things I personally considered less than accurate on the employee side from time to time, but by and large the advice , when solicited, was sound. Management was also quick to hem up an employee if they thought someone was out of their lane or being rude. That's just one place though and just my experience there for a short time. I did feel like the 2 main gun guy customer types I encountered were the well meaning Bubba or the know it all gun neophyte that probably spent a lot of time on Arfcom and was convinced that they were going to snipe the gun counter guy and expose you as an ill informed, you know, gun counter guy.

Y’know, my opinion is that the information age has even trickled into the mom n pop gun stores. I have not just 1, but 3 places local to me where I could take a new shooter, and trust that the guys (and 1 or 2 gals) behind the counter would give them rock solid advice and options. Even the 4th place I poke my head in to regularly isn't bad, but 2 of the places had ECQC alum behind the counters, and 2 had multiple Marines with combat experience. One place had a dude who was both (suffice to say, I’m still friends with that guy, even though he’s moved on from the industry)
Anyhoo, it’s different environment than when I was young, for sure.
The customers can be a different story, but I have the luxury of assuming that they’re all paid to do something else.

Or as my dad recently said regarding our business, “I’m convinced more and more people are using the internet.”
Yes Dad. Yes they are.
I’ve been working in construction full time since I was 15. So who are you going to believe, me or some random guy on the internet with zero credentials? The random guy obviously, he said you’re right and I’m wrong.
