That employee probably hurt his store's sales figures, especially at Christmas, with an attitude like that.I had a husband and wife Christmas shopping one time, buying their children their first .22s. They were going to buy two Crickett rifles until I began to ask about the older daughter. After a few minutes, I determined that a Savage 64F would suit the older, more grown daughter. Sadly, I never heard back as to how the kids liked their Christmas presents.</blockquote>
