[QUOTE="Zaphod Beeblebrox, post: 1298126, member: 4606"] They usually have good prices, but not great selection. As for the staff, some barely know which end of the gun to hold onto, some actually seem to know a bit, and some know about half as much as they think they do. For example, today I was at one in OKC looking at a G19. One fellow told me it was a gen 4, but it was one of the RTF versions with the "fish gill" slide cuts. I told him I wanted the gen 4 and he told me that was it. I tried to explain that a gen 4 has the backstraps, extended mag release, etc, but he was convinced the RTF was the gen 4 (I think their sign said it was). Another fellow came along and actually corrected the first guy, and then checked around only to find out Academy doesn't appear to stock actual gen 4 g19s. He did know the difference, though, and both of them were polite and professional. You just gotta know what you're looking for. [/QUOTE]
