Uh, may I reiterate number 6 and number 9?
When I go in to look at a handgun, it’s always pointed in a safe direction. If the store is busy, that safe direction is down.
And I ALWAYS ask if it’s ok to dry fire the firearm (so I can check trigger pull).
Regarding number 6, handing a gun to a customer.
In the State of Washington the “people” via referendum passed a law to ban illegal gun transfers. To the typical idiot voter that would seem like a good idea to keep guns out of the hands of bad guys.
However, at 18 pages long it isn’t just the bad guys. And it isn’t about “sales”, it is about “transfers”. (Spelled out in the 18 pages - I legally am not supposed to let my adult son shoot any of my shotguns at the trap range without paying the $25 transfer fee).
Some gun stores have also wondered if letting a buyer handle the gun beforehand is a “transfer”. Most normal folks have no qualms of handing over a gun to be looked at. Although I do know of a gunsmith that won’t do any work on stranger’s guns. Worried that they might try to trap him with the “transfer fee” thing. (Although the law is unclear on that for repairs.)
The law has been on the books for a year now, no arrests have been made. I imagine the cops figure it is pretty unenforceable. It will be the courts I suppose that will add it on to other charges.
