VIDEO: Gun Store Owner Shoots Through Counter, Kills Robbery Suspect
http://www.breitbart.com ^ | 1/9/17 | by AWR HAWKINS

The store is Dixie Gun and Pawn and the store owner’s name is Jimmy Groover.

Action News 5 reports that Groover was wearing a handgun on his hip when the suspects entered the store. Once under threat, he drew his gun and shot, hitting one of the suspects and killing him on the spot.

Surveillance video of the incident has now been released and published by LiveLeak. In it you can clearly see one of two suspects pointing a gun at a store employee and then in Groover’s direction. The next thing you see is Groover shooting and killing one suspect, then shooting at the second as well.

“...One hell of a nice head shot. Exactly what he deserved....”
Only thing better would have been to gut shot and left to bleed out....real slow.

That’s about the distance I generally train for (which is very, very rare these days - too expensive). But he was smart to duck and take a shot; pretty impressive hit.

I’m sure the liberals will weep and cry. We could just as easily been looking at two dead clerks. The perp appeared to have 2 guns.

Had a relative almost killed by a convicted felon who was only out of the joint for a short time; robbery it was.

You’re right. He never even knew what hit him.

Looks like center of mass, slightly higher, his arms and head fold towards the impact. Also he had grabbed a second gun with his left hand and was getting ready to bring it to bear. Looks like several shots hit him as he staggered backwards, and likely had his light turned out before he hit the floor, judging by the ripple when he landed flat.

All in all, not bad, excellent reaction to the threat by the white haired individual.

I use adblockplus and it seems to work well. The only drawback is some sites will shut down unless you disable it. http://www.telegraph.co.uk is one of them I can think of.

Yes, that’s true, and I have run across a few sites like that as well.

I just laugh at their whining and then leave. I’m not going to be plagued by adds, and if they don’t like my add blocker, I won’t look at their content either.

Yes, wow. It looked like the bad guy was dead before he hit the floor. I bet he thought he was cool with a gun in each hand and an inseam down to his knees.

How stupid do you have to be to rob a gun store?

The gun shop owner becomes aware of the robbery at :05 and by :09 in the video the first robber is dead. He put a lot of lead in the direction of #2 but the guy may have been running or bad sight lines.

Clearly good shooting under pressure situation.
