    Clerk open the case and hands him the scope
    Kid take scope looks at it and sez Thanks and starts to walk away
    Clerk ....... What kind of gun are you putting this on
    Kid ....... A 30-06
    Clerk ....... You know that scope is for a BB gun
    Kid ...... Oh ...... What scope do I need
    Clerk ........ How much you want to spend
    Kid ..... 60 dollars
    Clerk ...... looks at him kinda funny and sez this is what you need
    Kid ...... takes scope and leaves .......

    Also the look that the cashier gave me when it was checking out was a look of disgust ........ I told her I hope her day gets better and left .....

    Why would that make you paranoid?

    Kid had no clue ....... Never asked any queistions I guess you had to see the situation ....... Scope not on sale ....... Centerfire season all but over ...... A little late to start putting a scope on a rifle ....... Don't know just seemed wierd

    So I guess I am paranoid ........

    Also added to post that the kid started to walk away with the BB scope

    If you look for something you will inevitably "see" it even if it truly doesn't exist. None of us were there so cannot comment on it.

    If it is enough to truly shock you, report it. After all, reporting it here does no good.

    I would hate to think what OP would have thought if he was in Dicks 2 Xmass ago.

    My wife was buying a 10/22 for me as gift, and had no idea what I was looking for. She just knew that its .22, it was silver.
