Concealed carry in gun shops

Hello Paul and Nick,

My gun shop has a sign on the door as you enter. Keep your gun concealed if your carring one that is. They also have an indoor shooting range and if you know range rules then, only loaded gun on the firing line. No where else. So unholstering and presenting a loaded weapon at the gun counter or any where else would/should be prohibited. Certain guns are very forgiving some are not when it comes to an accidental/negligent discharge. Plus barrel pointing/swiping must be considered as well. All said it just isnt safe to be waving guns around loaded. What if more than one decides to present a loaded gun for trade or a holster fit etc. It could turn into a very nerving experience. If they want to show off or trade or whatever then bring the gun into your shop cased. Even then you not sure if its loaded or not. So you and your son must constantly be wary and inspect all weapons brought in.

But pulling CCW weapons out loaded is a potential disaster that could cause injury or death to you and your son or other patrons. Murphys Law. Plus your insurance provider my not cover such practices if sued. Just avoid the whole thing and post a sign. All but the most uninitiated will understand and be more than happy to comply.
