    Show it to them, problem solved... A Seriously stupid thing to stand your ground over.

    But they're fighting for freedom, warm apple pie, and the American way of life! It'd be nice to see one of the advocates here post a video of themselves acting as the apex predator wolves they think they are. If they're so set on making a statement, do it right. Don't harass the minimum wage door greeter. Stop and ask to speak to the store manager.

    I think are far more important things to get spun up about than dealing with the slight inconvenience of having a receipt checked. Again, some people need drama in their lives and go searching for low hanging fruit.

    You actually own a gold-plated Taurus Judge?


    I honestly would not know which is more puzzling. Gold-plating a pistol, or thinking that Taurus produces firearms.

    Dude, Tier 1 Operators are using them and nobody else can get them. The gold plating improves their performance and lethality in every metric. Literal one-shot stops are the norm.

    Here's some classified helmet cam footage from an Airborne DeltaGRU sniper SEAL Ranger during a recent op against ISIS in Egypt, OP Gold And Eye. It was leaked by some North Korean hackers earlier this year, so it's totally cool to share here.

    I like my rifles like my women - short, light, fast, brown, and suppressed.

    Same same, right?
    Key word: Public

    Your home is your private residence and they cannot forcefully enter or search without a proper warrant. In PUBLIC it is a different story.

    And this thread is not about that anyway, I just threw in a small example relative to the subject of being asked to show your receipt or ID. If you know any LEO friends you would understand why they ask for ID when they confront individuals in public.

    For those who for stores requiring customers to show them their receipt, where does it end? What if the store's policy was for you to lift your shirt or to open your purse or bag for inspection on leaving? Would that be acceptable?

    Empty your pockets...
    Of course not. That is a bit too extreme.

    But it is quite common for stores like Bestbuy to ask to see your receipt on big ticket items as you walk out the door for theft prevention. You paid for that 60" tv and have your receipt? You're good to go. How about that flash drive in your pocket?

    You're not a thief unless you are a thief...
