Thieves ripped down the external window bars at 500 Guns here in Indy last night. Then they broke the window and got at the internal bars, though they do not seem to have broken them. They may have grabbed "several guns." (Tam wonders how, as it's a ten-foot reach from the window to the nearest firearm.)
The owner, wisely, is not talking to media.
This is a fairly standard MO, often using a stolen SUV. Family Indoor Shooting Range (formerly Popguns) and Don's Guns have been hit in the last few years using similar smash & grab tactics.
Of all the unlikely places!
ReplyDeleteDid the thieves expect to make off with a Darne shotgun and a Holland and Holland double rifle, file the serial numbers off, etc.
They didn't get that Enfield .22 trainer, did they?
Homie got to hunt lions, too?

ReplyDeleteI sure hope not. My resistance weakens every time I see it...
(wv is, and I'm not kidding, "cointoad".)
Don't forget this smash-n-grab: http://www.worldtribune.com/2013/04/09/20000-u-s-m-16s-stolen-from-unguarded-warehouse-in-kuwait/
ReplyDeleteThey had one here in Orlando where the thieves drove a stolen truck right through the wall of the store. Universal background checks would have stopped them.
ReplyDeleteSimilar thing happened to Fort Liberty out in Avon a year or so back.
ReplyDeleteWhy they built up the bollards out front now.
