I'll Never set foot in Academy again
I am 79 years old, a Marine and retired Public Safety, 30 years. Never been arrested or even accused of a crime. My advanced arthritis in my hands makes racking a semi-automatic pistol difficult, so Acad___ had a Taurus revolver on sale. I had never been there before, so was not surprised at all when they did the ATF check. It came back immediately that I was okay to purchase. Another clerk came up and said I would have to wait 14 working days before I could get the pistol. WHAT!
I should have told them to shove it where the sun don't shine, but I didn't.
Fourteen days later I went back, paid and started to the door. A clerk grabbed me and said "I must escort you out the door" I asked Why?
He stated, "You may just start shooting up the place."
WTF? Okay I'm old, look old, gray hair, but clean cut and still carry a badge
I will never go back there and I discourage anyone else spending their money at Academy
If your talking the Academy on Davis . . . I hate that place. The gun dept. clerks are as dumb as dirt. The cashiers are lazy and untrained. The customer service dept . . aint.
Never heard of the DOB thing. Guessing . . she is as uninformed as the rest. --- SAWMAN
