This. Thank you.
Dogs?
5 mane pitt bulls i side. Cheaper!. Hate to open in am,though.
Gun shop owner in my town was murdered - shot, stabbed, and robbed by three guys in broad daylight. His family now suffers through the experience every time one of the scumbags comes up for parole, thanks to the elimination of the death penalty they so rightly deserved.
How about some tears for them, lady?
Great idea! Sentence those evil, vicious ol’ guns to life behind bars and let the good, sweet criminals walk free...
Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
All jewelry stores that I know of do it as a requirement of their insurance carriers. I never understood why all firearms dealers don't.
“These criminals, they quickly grab ten guns or 20 guns per case, throw them in a duffle bag. Then, next thing you know there’s 50-60 guns walking out the door, or running out the door,” said Littleton Chief of Police Doug Stephens.”
The police chief went on to say that since he is incompetent and can’t do his job of stopping crime or catching criminals store owners who are robbed of their livelihood should be held criminally responsible.
Old steel is an amazing store. It’s almost like a museum, except I guess everything is for sale. But imagine a small museum level display of guns. The building is exceedingly secure. It would take two or three hours to put them away and put them back out each morning.
Littleton is run by leftists.
Her son was murdered because they were to testify against other blacks. Seems maybe they should lock of blacks at night instead of guns.
It’s obvious you haven’t been to that gun store. It would be like telling a decent sized museum to remove all the displays at night. It would easily take 2 to 3 hours at the beginning and end of each day. And the building is a very secure building. And it’s in a location that would be hard to do things unnoticed.
If there is a spate of robberies plaguing the area, and they are awash with surveillance video, here’s an idea: the town should demand that the Sheriff do his job, not put blame the victims who pay his salary. Hardening one target merely shifts criminals’ attention to easier marks (like home invasions).
A few “stakeouts” wherein the criminals go from “caught in flagrante delicto” to “corpus delicti” in five seconds would end this problem.
There have to be a few Jim Cirillos around.
I’m surprised companies agree to insure the stores that won’t protect their inventory. There needs to be responsible efforts to protect assets.
Giovanni is a decent guy, but his inventory is overpriced. He does have some very nice old mausers.
There certainly are ways to make a buisness’ building secure, impenetrable construction, doors, etc. Banks do it.
If a gun dealer invests in security of this type to avoid having to move his inventory into and out of a vault daily, great!
Have you priced safes lately?
A large well made safe that can hold 30 rifles is going to run you $15K. Even a small gun shop is going to need more than one.
That is a huge impediment to starting a gun shop or keeping an existing one in business.
Insurance companies would give the owner a break on premiums for keeping the stock in safes but it would be minor compared to the cost of the safes.
Locking up is a broad term. Maybe you could buy a bunch of the cheap gun lockers made of sheet metal. But that would be pointless because it would be no more of an impediment to robbery than the display cases.
Any such ordinance needs to provide the business some flexibility on compliance. The antique dealer’s building should not be required to have safes.
Walmart is never empty
