More than 100 handguns were stolen from a store in southwestern Michigan after the manager was held at gunpoint outside his home and forced to reveal how to turn off the alarm, authorities said Tuesday.
All guns except one were recovered and two men were arrested Friday, a day after the brazen heist at Dunham’s Sports, US Attorney Mark Totten said.
“Just look at the firepower on this table,” Jim Deir, head of the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in Michigan, told reporters.
“There’s over $100,000 worth of guns here. … My experience: These were headed to the streets. These were headed for quick sale, quick money,” Deir said.

As the Left continues to go softer on crime, the criminals get bolder and bolder. What a surprise. I’ll bet next they will try to disarm law abiding citizens to further protect the criminals.
“Investigators got the name of a suspect after he tried to transfer money from the manager’s bank account with a cash app, the agent said.”

Its them again
Kidnapping a gun-store owner outside his home and forcing him to return and open his business is a great idea for future felons. Provides lots of job-openings for “armed escorts”.
I am not surprised.
These were headed to the streets. These were headed for quick sale, quick money,” Deir said.
Couldn’t be any of those got a ways crossing the border they are here for a reason.
Hiding ain’t one of them
Any alarm I’ve worked with had a “normal” disarm code and a “Someone has a gun to my head. Send police” code.
I think about a week after the codes were set, I was the only one that remembered the “panic” code.
