I was working one day at the LGS. He hires several of the local fireman part time.

We were busy as hell selling rifles and scopes. I sold a rifle/scope and needed to get tools to mount it up.

Young fireman had a Ruger Mini ranch on the vise with a 1-4 Leupold mounted backwards. Customer was standing there watching him.

I quietly tried to tell him it was wrong. He got offended and loudly told me the big end always goes forward. He said he can see thru it fine.

So I went on my way and started mounting the scope I sold. He walked up and asked me was i joking. I just told him to move the magnification from 1 to 4 and he would see the problem
