Re: BAD gun buying experience

I bought my MilPro PT140 from the store on Westheimer and Voss about three months ago. I went there on my lunch break and had already looked at it elsewhere and had already decided on it and the price couldn't be beat. The local Academy didn't have any instock so that was the one that got the walk up "Gimme that one" hardest sale they'll ever make.
Took 45 minutes just to get the call in after filling everything out, the manager arguing with the sales guy and trying to find someone else to do this so she could go do something else. Overall it took over an hour after the time I said "Gimme" to when she walked me out the door and handed my weapon over on the other side of the door. I was allowed to carry my Hornady CD's out the door. If she had not spent all the time trying to get out of doing the work, it would have been a very quick deal.
I wasn't put off from buying there again, but it won't be my first choice.
