I went over to the local Bass Pro Shop to get a small 9mm handgun for home/personal protection.
When I was ready to pay for the pistol and ammo, the cashier said, "Strip down, facing me."
Making a mental note to complain to the NRA about the gun control wackos running amok, I did just as she had instructed.
When the hysterical shrieking and alarms finally subsided, I found out she was referring to how I should place my credit card in the card reader!!!
As an intelligent senior citizen, I do not get flustered often. But this time, it took me a while to get my pants back on.
I've been asked to shop elsewhere in the future. They need to make their instructions to seniors a little more clear.
I still don't think I looked that bad.

Re: Bass Pro Shop Concealed Carry Policy
That was hilarious. And no my instructor didn't teach us the rules of the Wally Walk. I didn't know about that until after I joined this forum......

Re: Bass Pro Shop Concealed Carry Policy
Thanks, this is what I assumed based on my CHL training.
I knew that I wouldn't be in any legal trouble by carrying inside the store, but I still got a little nervous, being my first venture into the public as a CHL.
I almost took my gun back to the car, but I decided that since it was concealed, nobody would know anyway. And if I get kicked out of a store that I visit one or two times a year, that's no big deal anyway (since the wife wasn't there).

Bass Pro Shop Concealed Carry Policy
I'm sure that this topic has been discussed before here but I searched and didn't find it.
Just got my CHL. Went to Bass Pro Shop. They have signs at the door that state to check in your guns and bows at customer service before entering the store.
Do these signs apply to CHLs when carrying concealed?
I assumed that they were more for returns/warrantee items since there was so 30.06 sign or notice given.
