I had a a strange experience today when I visited Salisbury to have a look at buying a new rifle from Greenfields.
On walking into the well stocked shop I was greeted by 3 yes 3 very pleasant young ladies who asked if I was looking for anything in particular or was I just browsing? I explained that I was looking to possibly buy a new .223 rifle so if there was someone around that could show me a few examples then that would be great.
This is where things got weird...! One of the young ladies went and got several boxed weapons assembled them, showed me the good and not so good points about each one and answered every question I asked!
I was at no point put under any pressure to buy any particular weapon, but when I had decided to make my purchase everything was put together checked and packed up for the journey home. The young lady even offered to help carry the various boxes to my car! (I must be looking old)
The service I received was without doubt the best I have ever received from any gun shop I have visited so if your ever down in Wiltshire call in, you will be very surprised!!
Oh and the price paid was as good as the one I was quoted by one of the biggest retailers in the southwest!
So it's a big thumbs up and a thank you to Gabriella and the rest of the staff at Greenfields, I will be making them my preferred gun shop!
