I got in an argument at BRA not too long ago over something stupid involving the military. I know how gun-store clerks are and I usually avoid that type of discussion altogether, but I asked if they could order a particular part (which my unit is currently using) and I got a lecture on how nobody in the military uses it because it is a piece of junk and I should just use brand-X instead. I don't like to play my cool guy cards, but in this instance I couldn't hold back and ended up verbally beating the clerk about the neck and shoulders with them.
It's a pity, we were willing to send a lot of business their way.
