Got my new girlfriend into shooting and she wanted a CPL, I walked her to the King county courthouse because it is way to shady around that neighborhood to let her walk alone.
I check my pistol in and it goes ok, except for when I said I wanted a receipt for dropping off my gun into a box I didn't get to get a key for. Sherriff A looks at me like I'm crazy and asks why I need a receipt. I told him because I just put my gun in a box that I'm not in control or possession of and if it isn't in there when I come back I want a piece of paper saying that I had one in there. Sherriff tells me it will be there when I get back. I tell him, "you cannot guarantee that but whatever you say sir" we part ways, but seriously, that's some first class BS right there.
Girlfriend gets her CPL extortion fee paid and does the penalty fingerprint for being a law abiding citizen. I talk to sherrif B and ask him to get someone to let me get my pistol back. Sheriff C shows up, walks me back, I get my pistol and strap it on, he asks me what kind. I tell him the same kind he has on, a Glock 17 Gen 4. He tells me it's not the same, tells me he has a Gen 7. I told him I had never heard of that. (Totally just going with it not trying to sound sarcastic about the absurdity) he proceeds to pull his loaded gun out of the holster, flags me in doing so, looks at it and reads the slide that it's a Glock 17 Gen 4 and proceeds to holster. Not everyone who carries a gun is a gun person.
I was happy to get out of that place with my life. Lol
