Do they just flat out lie to get you to buy, or do they actually believe what they say is the truth?
I realize the common story about gunshop employees being one of the worst place to get info about guns, lol, but come on.
I was looking at a M&P compact with my wife tonight. It had a manual safety which I don't want. Other than that I liked it and my wife definitely wants one. The employee tells me that's the only way they make them. Give me a flippin break, of all the ones I've looked at, that was the FIRST ONE I've seen in person WITH the manual safety. He just tells me it's easy to get used to. With enough time sure, but that's not what I want.Besides me already knowing it, a 2 second search on S&W's website show's he was full of it, and I've even seen them at that store without them.

I thanked him for his time and walked away. My wife had really liked it, and wants one, and was disappointed we didn't get it until I told her I can get it cheaper at another place and he was full of crap about the safety.
