While in one of our local mart-mart, (Bi-Mart) stores this last weekend I stopped and looked at the some of the rifles on display. I'm not a wooden stock fan but there was a Savage Stevens 334, (6.5cm) sitting there with a nice looking walnut stock on it and I ask to see it.
The young man behind the counter said sure and started unlocking three different locks to get it out and then put a trigger lock on it before handing it to me. I asked him how you try the trigger with it locked up and he said you don't, this was the new company policy for all guns now. He wasn't happy having to do all the locks just to show it and I don't blame him.
It had a very smooth 60 degree bolt but if I couldn't try the trigger there was no way I would buy it, period. I have bought guns from this store for right at 40 years now but if I can't try the trigger I won't be buying any more from them, this is a shame because this is good store chain for our small area.
I guess it's just another sign of the times because of the crap going on over on the west side of the state of Oregon.
