As opposed to Cabelas, where they hand over the gun as soon as the paperwork is done. I was there a couple weeks back, turned a corner in the clothing department and walked right in front of the muzzle of a shotgun belonging to a guy who bought one and decided to play with it while his wife was picking out clothes.

The Cabelas in Allen has walked the gun to the front with every one of them that I have purchased from them. They use a lot of tape on the boxes too!

Not sure how long it's been, but I bought an 870 there at Christmas time last year that they taped and handed over the counter. Combined with this guy, I'd say they're awfully inconsistent on how they're doing business.
