Green Mountain Guns robbed again.

All guns should be in a safe or vault after closing. Especially after all the smash and grabs last year. No excuses.

They were a**holes when I visited a couple times, I wonder if they pissed off someone really badly?

Unlikely. Remember last summer, it seemed like this was happening once a week?

[Zundfolge]

Wow! Makes you wonder if this a local crowd doing the stealing or a nation-wife group?

At this point I almost wonder if they aren't financed by Bloomberg.

I've heard there are people who believe that the Clinton administration allowed the reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone as a long game play on gun control.

No, really we had a store where we kept blackpowder in the safe. In other news, there was a concrete truck in Pueblo...

Bass Pro keeps (or kept) their BP in a small Type II rolling magazine that most definitely would count as a safe.

^^^THIS. Now, before the crowd of shop owners chime in with the "It only takes an angle grinder and 5 minutes to defeat a gun safe"... Yes, you are correct. However, these thieves are looking for a quick grab. They aren't going to want to spend time cutting into a safe and hoping they get the guns they are specifically looking for. Not to mention, I'm guessing Lakewood PD was on-scene pretty quick. Is it a pain in the butt to put the guns away in safes every night? Yep. Is it better than having them all stolen? Yep. The criminals likely cased the store before hitting it. Probably around closing time to see if the guns were put away after hours. Just guessing though.

If I remember correctly, a member here said the guns would get scratched being transferred to and from the safe everyday by employees and that would hurt the bottom line. Plus, safes cost lots of money.....

[Irving]

Seems like it'd be pretty easy to just build slightly more robust display cases for pistols and steel grates can be locked on every night. Same for guns stored on walls. It'd be the same as putting on hurricane panels every night. Take up less space and cost a lot less than a bunch of safes.

Poor guy. His insurance is going to skyrocket. He will likely get dropped by his current carrier and have to go to what's called a sub-standard carrier. High premiums and poor service. That will be another way "THEY" will strangle the industry. Underwriting will deem covering retailers too risky and not offer coverage.

[Irving]

Surplus lines carrier is what you're thinking of. Not necessarily sub-standard, but more equipped to handle higher risk. Assuming they are insurable at all.
