That's the worst, especially if the "salesman" is someone under 30, you ask them if they have any "3rd gen S&W Autos" or even specific model numbers, "645", 4506, 5906, etc. and all you get is a deer and headlights look. And then, if you are lucky thats it, sometimes they try to talk like they know what they are talking about and say, "yea, we have some Smith 1911's over here" or they turn it around on you saying I must be wrong. Depending on how incompetent they are, I sometimes ask them to get a manager, and ask the same question to them, in front of the young salesman, then you will usually get a valid response and hopefully a lesson for the kid.
