    I like them separated by manufacturer, arranged by model, then caliber in a glass display, if they are on metal stands, that's a plus. Used guns need to be in a separate case of their own. Ditto on the tags being visible of the same information & most importantly $$$$$

    I like them being separate by manufacturer, because it makes it easier to look for brand X.

    By type, by caliber. Price clearly marked, new/used clearly discernible. If it’s on the shelf, it’s in stock, none of this ‘display model we can order it’ stuff.

    Quarantine the Glocks away from all the useful guns.
    Actually I changed my mind, this -^

    Don't mind how they are displayed as long as i can get close to see them. I.e., not behind the counter jockeys with no tags and trigger locks.

    Have well written tags with prices.

    Having them seperated by MFG is really nice

    Honestly, as stated as long as they are grouped in some particular manner, I'm good with it. I will find what I am interested in. And not with visible indications of them banging into each other, as is the case on most military bases I've been to!

    And while I know it's not practical at a store, I do prefer gun show set-ups where I can pick up and handle a pistol without having to ask for assistance. Many times I just want to know how well it feels in my hand, and how it's balanced. The problem there is idiots don't know how to properly handle a sidearm, and they either muzzle sweep everyone, dry fire it without checking to ensure it's unloaded, or they bash them down on the table without regard or care. It's like display cars at the airport or mall, I wouldn't buy one after knowing what the general public does to them!

    As long as I can get close enough to read the effing price tag and get a decent look at the gun without having to have the people behind the counter get it out for me, I'm happy. I don't want to sit there and have them hand me gun after gun just because I can't get a look at them otherwise. That's a waste of my time and theirs.

    Prices on or next to anything displayed or I just leave. I don’t have time to wait for a sales person to feed me a bunch of crap just to get the price of something I’m trying to purchase.

    Actually, a handgun vending machine would be pretty cool!
