There are four dudes who will all think long and hard about their next caper.

Nope...just two dudes. The other two assumed room temperature during the attempted robbery.

NEW YORK -The two surviving members of a group of would-be stickup artists thwarted by a shotgun-wielding Harlem restaurant supply store owner have pleaded guilty to robbery.

See, now in Florida, and other states, these to scum bags wouldn't be pleading to robbery they'd be on trial for murder.

“Flechette and Federal Black Cloud ammo.”

Mossberg M 88 here,,,

My first 3 are “little arrows”,,,

They are good out to near 200 yards,,,

Won’t spread much after 50 yards,,,

They are the very best load for a shotgun,,,

Great choice,,,(hat tip)...;0)

I was wondering about that myself. I'm guessing that either NY doesn't have a felony murder law, or they pled it away.

Knowing that in NYC the only private citizens that are allowed to pack heat are Rosie O’Donuts and DeNiro I’d like to know how many charges have been lodged against the shop owner.
