Nice, the are great and ammo is nice and cheap. If you are using surplus ammo, make sure you clean it well after every use. That stuff can be corrosive. I have two of them 1906, and a 1943. love um both.
If the clerk, is just going through the motions, he or she may not notice that you are way older or what to get rifle or pistol ammo. I believe that the person behind the desk should make an educated guess, if in doubt, ID the person. It is a law and I agree. Though there are some funky rifles...
