The second armed robbery occurred on January 19th, 2012, at about 9:57 hours. The suspect brandished rifle at the clerk.

The rifle used in the second robbery appears to be one of the many models of Russian Military Mosin Nagant, bolt action high, powered rifle.

(california) Looks like the perp is using a M38 carbine with the butt cutt off! (2nd pic at site) If he shoots it, it would probably kill him, too. Sad part is that the rifle will probably be destroyed when the police catch up with him.

The comments at the site are pretty funny:

“HOW DARE STUPID AMERICAN CHILD USE GLORIOUS SOVIET WEAPON FOR PETTY ROBERRY? IS RIFLE WITH LEGACY OF WAR, NOT FOOLISHNESS. TO USE RIFLE FOR IDIOT IDEA MAKE SERGEI MOSIN ROLL IN GRAVE. ALL OF RUSSIA DISAPPOINTED IN WASTED YOUTH. “

Google Obrez pistol. Used during the Russian Revolution, as rifles were easily obtained and modified to be concealed. Firing one? You first.

A Mosin m38 carbine desecrated, then used in a robbery. I weep.

Not worth the paperwork hassles. I’m not a fan of commie guns, I think they’re bad karma. I mean, if you buy a Tokarev, you have to check the muzzle for neck hairs and stuff.

It ain’t about the store, but the apparent arms race going on. ;)

They sure are, I’m laughing out loud...

My favorite one is this: “Perhaps he wanted to set fire to the clerk?”

I own an M44 myself so I know the size of the fireball these make LOL...

Ouch. My wrist hurts just looking at it. Better keep a firm forward grip, lest you receive a nice crease in your forehead.
