Almost as bad as Cholo's experience; I had bought a 98% beautiful S&W 52 target pistol at my LGS, and trusted the 'smith to install a set of new Altamont walnut grip panels that of course, need work to make the fit perfect.
When I went to pick it up, it was in the showcase. That's one.
The new counterguy pulled it out for me and drooled over it, not exactly handing it to me. He showed it to the next interested counterguy, who bumped it on the case edge. Thats two.
Next - you guessed it - they started snapping the trigger over and over, right in front of my outstretched hand! That's three.
- No I refused the gun and had the shop send it to a S&W Repair Center before I'd accept it. They replaced the nearly new sear and a couple of internals.
The owner was furious, and I never saw any other trigger or action work at that store again, ever.
Antics like flipping the cylinder are just ignorance playing out. I am a little outspoken, and suggest the counterguy seeks any other line of work.
