So, I’ve never been to a pawn shop before. I’m curious what’s there, but TV makes them seem shady and odd. What should I know before I visit? I’m sort of expecting a cross between an antique and a thrift store, that sort of vibe.

I’m in the USA and don’t intend to pawn anything.

    Every pawn shop I've been to has guns displayed behind the cashiers. If you are experiencing a lot of people saying "get the fuck out", I'd attribute that to some other common variable.
