    I've been a customer of John's through 4 different shop locations as he built up his business... It made me sick to hear this news but have confidence he will come out of this mess alright. I believe him to be a highly analytical and detailed businessman who gets and keeps his ducks in a row.

    While those of you who say he should have had his inventory in safes at night may have a valid point, I know that with his very limited space despite having a bunch of huge safes, there was no real way to put all of his inventory in big safes every night. They would inevitably become scratch and dent models even if the safe-capacity was sufficient.

    I believe he shows a certain level of prudence in what he does do... and that is to prioritize his customer's guns and NFA items are stored in the safes to make sure they are as secure as possible.

    I know a lot of larger shops with far more inventory that have far exceeded the possibility of putting their inventory in safes every night....so that seems like a hollow complaint and immature finger-pointing to me. I just wish him the best and will be glad to support him again when they get back in full swing.

    I absolutely wish him the best, and have done business with him, and will again, but I disagree with your assessment of further securing inventory at night.

    It's not immature or "hollow complaining". It's rationally addressing how to avoid a crime that is becoming more and more prevalent in the area. Given the store location, construction, and accessibility, taking further steps to avoid a smash and grab theft would have been prudent...
