Having taken the day off, the wife and I decided to hit all of the LGS's in search of a new EDC for her because she has been having trouble with the grip width on her PT140 due to her small hands and carpel tunnel. I was OC my SR1911 Commander, and we started out our search at the stores with ranges to see if there was anything in their rental fleet that suited her. At one of the stops she was able to rent a gun she really liked, but the shop didn't have one in stock, so we continued our search, but now with a specific item in mind. Our 4th stop of the day was Bradis I, and just like the first 3 stops, I got a few comments about the "Body piercing by: Model 1911" Tshirt I was wearing, but no one said anything other than what model 1911 is that you are carrying. They happened to have the gun we were looking for, a Taurus 709, in the case, so after looking it over and getting a trade price offer on her PT140 pro, we decided to walk over to Bradis II and look around while we talked over the impending purchase, since I had cash in pocket, and was planning on buying the gun if she really wanted it. Shortly after entering Bradis II, a man behind the counter ask if my 1911 was loaded, and when I replied yes, he "told", not ask, me to go and unload it. When I replied that I do not unholster or handle my firearm in public for any reason, he told me to "GET OUT", so we left Bradis II got in our car, went to another store, and purchased a new Taurus 709 EDC for my wife.
Yes I did see the no loaded gun sign, it looked a lot like the rest of the ones I had already seen today including the one on the door of Bradis I where I was planning on making a purchase.
Yes I get it, your store, your rules, and I complied. But considering it is a 30 minute drive past other stores in the first place, I will not be back.
For anyone carrying and shopping at Bradis I, don't go over to Bradis II, because you will be ordered to get out.
