View Full Version : Thieves break into a gun store
I mean, really, guys, what did you THINK was going to happen (http://chronicle.augusta.com/news/crime-courts/2012-08-09/north-augusta-gun-shop-owner-kills-suspected-burglar-injures-two-others?v=1344564648)?
And, speaking for myself, when I hear "kill him", my brain translates that "The range is hot, commence firing."
Hi cap mags.....if only we could limit the capacity of the mags to 5 or 10 rounds. Maybe then the theives would not have been harmed. So sad......oh well.

+1. Sounds like he needs a caliber upgrade, though.
Got all three, one dead so far. Sucks to have to kill a young man, but the little bastards should of known the risks of robbing a gun store, with the owners LIVING IN THE BACK OF THE STORE, ARMED. And when they see the owner they say "kill him"? Really?
Glad he was able to protect himself, his wife, and his store/livelihood.

.223 works just fine, it's all about shot placement. Well done for this guy, maybe he'll no longer be targeted by thieves. Why you would try to rob a gun store is beyond me- those places are usually locked up better than most businesses and you never know when someone is living there or doing late night inventory. Risk outweighs reward in that one!

Maybe the old prairie arms guys need to take some lessons. They got hit a few time...
Natural selection at it's finest...

[Bang][Bang][Bang] Yep... And sorry if this sounds racist, but WTF is up with that group of our society naming their kids these ridiculous names? K'Raven? How do you even pronounce that? K-Raven or Kraven? Mom must be named something equally stupid like Shaneequ'aa.
I don't hate any group of people- just individuals- but seriously... America was settled by white Europeans in the 16/1700's and in just two generations created one of the greatest republics on Earth and flourished. Slavery ended over 200 years ago and still to this day 1/5 black males are expected by 25 to either be dead or in some stage of correction? How hard is it to pull yourself together and become a productive member of society? /rant[Rant1]
The story says AR15 semiautomatic rifle, they forgot the "assault" part.

Negative, from the sound of it this person aspires to be an actual "journalist", instead of a news-entertainment celebrity. [Coffee]

This reminds me of a story from some years ago, I think in Florida. Some robbers tried a similar smash and grab on an NFA dealer and he responded with a real assault rifle. I believe he fired over 100 rounds. The bad guys were more together than these bozos and were firing at him. This is one of the few examples of suppressive fire being used in self defense. He was firing at them to keep them pinned down and unable to fire at him.
This current case was flat out Darwinian. I think an AR-15 was a good choice for the kind of defense. It has low recoil so he could get off a lot of shots and the tumbling bullets would have definitely slowed down a wounded bad guy.

That is like the lady who was angry at the school because no one could pronounce her child's name correctly. It was spelled:
No-A
She stated that the "-" was not silent. Thus it was pronounced nodasha.
As for the article...Maby one of these days punks like this will wake up and realize it isn't worth their lives to try junk like this. I doubt they ever will...but one can hope.

I caught that right away too, and the fact that the story never used the term "high capacity magazine/clip". Yes, this writer is a true journalist.
So let's rob a GUN store that's it we show em we be bad.

"I swear it sounded like a good idea when we were talking about it."
I guess that's the second time they have robbed, If it was up to me I think I'll be moving.

The scary part is what would have happened if they got away with the guns. Sold them to drug gangs or domestic terrorists? I hope they get hard federal time, as there is no parole in the federal system. I'm glad they all got shot and I hope the two survivors are charged with murder, because their accomplice died.
It is really a shame all three aren't being buried.
