Is that the one that is almost across 121 from Bass Pro? The only time I ever tried to go there, it was during what I would have called "regular business hours", on a week day, and they were closed, with a sign on the door saying you had to make an appointment. That was maybe 7 or 8 years ago. I never went back, because I didn't want to make an appointment just to browse guns. If they're open regularly now, I'd go back and give them a look, as they aren't that far from me.

Interesting - your definition for what “In Stock” means must be different from mine – to me it means inside the building, already in inventory, at the ready to be packed and shipped out – not having the customer wait while it’s being surreptitiously ordered from Timbuktu. So, you’re saying that products shown as “In Stock” that are in reality not even in inventory, charging the customer well before something ships even though there is no written notification of that as being a condition for completion of the transaction and slow shipping are acceptable practices to be expected and have to be lived with across the spectrum of online firearm merchants, or specifically Grabagun?

Uhh - I'm not sure what you read or what you thought you read, but that's not what I wrote about - it was 20 bucks worth - two, zero - of accessories, was not a firearm. The stuff was indicated as in stock, there was no having to special order, there was no requirement of any up-front payment as a prerequisite to the transaction. Messing around with the card like they did is simply bad business and shady.

As for the fraudulent charge, I'd bet that's a coincidence.

Your opinion - and you're certainly welcome to it.
