Lone Tree Cabela's hit with "smash and grab"

[Shooter45]

Minimal information being released at this time but I'd suspect they hit the "Gun Library."

I'm so shocked!

Crazy. It is a fair piece from the front to the Gun Library.

Was just in there yesterday. They were saying they we overstocked and this is a helluva a way to reduce inventory.

Maybe they are using the rich Wyatt way of reducing inventory

This is ridiculous. I wonder what total time on target was? I wonder how many gun shops have a armed night guard now or are thinking about it. Either way I hope they catch these guys soon.

Explains why my ATF POC had to cancel our meeting this morning...

[Doc45]

Supposedly there were employees in the store, I guess they work late in to the night restocking?, they heard the crash of the car through the doors and hid. Same MO as others-hoodies, masks, etc. Other car/s waiting outside, gone in under 3 minutes. One display case typically stocked with Sigs was cleaned out I heard.

I heard they cleaned out the sigs at DCF too...

Maybe they're a cult of 320 preservationists who don't want upgraded safety features?

[Monky]

Good thing we don't want our tax payer $$$ wasted on things like the cops staking out these guys to bust them... they're obviously just going to stop stealing guns

I hope they drop one and shoot their junk off.

Maybe they will send all the P320 in for the voluntary upgrade?

Liberals see this and demand more gun laws. Logic is completely lost on them.

Made a run by there to see what they had for waterfowl shotguns and talked to the folks in the Gun Library.

Thieves drove a stolen vehicle through the east doors by the exit where the cashiers are located. Went in to the Gun Library and kicked in the case that had the Colt 1911 and also hit the Sig case in the new gun counter. Surveillance showed young teens were the robbers with at least one of them armed, similar to other smash and grabs.

Interesting that right next to the Colt 1911s there was a Nighthawk, Volkmann and a few Dan Wesson 1911s that weren't touched. Couple nice Pythons, high end shotguns, double rifles and ARs were also left alone. Guess it is easier to fence the stuff they took, compared to the other items.

Almost like they had a shopping list and stuck to it.

There was once a relatively low paying profession for businesses called the night watchman.

At some point, businesses may want to consider GPS tagging some of their more valuable items and allowing the police access to the tracking data as soon as the robbery is reported. Obviously the GPS tags could be removed and reused on other inventory when the items are sold.

I think these stores need a sniper tower maned by a qualified night guard.

So the doors to the Gun Library weren't even closed and locked?

[Marine24]

Doesn't appear so. The doors weren't damaged..
