I wish I had looked for reviews before I came to this gun store but it was a spur of the moment decision. I was at the costume shop next door (great place by the way) and just popped on in to look. I could tell the store was in transition because the floor was broken up and the racks were bare. The man sitting behind the rifle counter acted as if he were hiding from me. I finally got his attention and he timidly came around to the other counter to show me the pistols.
He acted very uncomfortable helping me but he also treated me as if I were a dumb girl. I grew up with firearms and my father is a police officer and an instructor. Yet every time I wanted to look at a particular handgun he told me how it wasn't a good weapon for a woman. I finally settled on a Glock .45 even though he told me it was too big for a woman. I got ready to fill out my background check and I gave him my Visa card. He told me, ""I cannot accept credit cards today because our machine is broken."" And then he proceeded to give me a long rambling speech about software and payments and updates and all kinds of other information that I did not care about.
I was preparing to go to the bank for cash until I heard a lady yelling at somebody from another room in the shop. At that moment in time I just walked out. I got a very bad feeling from the moment I walked in until the moment I left and I will not be going back. As a side note I got the same Glock .45 at Keiths Sporting Goods in Gresham for under 500 dollars with none of the awkwardness.
