I love this thread . It makes me feel very good about myself. When I first moved to Portland half a life ago I made the rounds of the then existing gun shops. The Gun Room was my very first.
I never spoke a word to any of the employees but I noticed that as I walked around looking at his decent selection of rifles and such, I physically winced as I read each price. Holy F**K! How can he charge these prices? I cannot specifically recall anything I overheard but it became clear to me very quickly that they had no interest in offering me any assistance and were not the kind of people I wanted anything to do with.
I have never set foot in that place ever again. It warms my heart to know that even as a young man I had the intelligence to come to the same conclusion as everyone else so quickly. I have been kind of worried that maybe I was a dumb kid and had been inappropriately harsh in forming this very strong opinion so quickly. I had been considering going back to check them again but now I wont. I will rest well tonight in the knowledge that I can feel free to despise them without remorse. eace:
Does anyone know if this guy has tables at the gun shows?
