TAMPA (FOX 13) - A mob of brazen burglars stole dozens of weapons from a Tampa gun shop Tuesday morning, after breaking in by driving through the front of the store. Surveillance cameras inside Tampa Arms Co. recorded the crime at about 3 a.m. The video shows a truck driving into the front of the business and, moments later, a swarm of thieves -- wearing masks and dressed alike -- running into the store, stealing about 40 weapons and taking off.

"It seemed to be well-calculated," said Richard Smith, the store's owner, adding he got a call notifying him of the burglary a couple hours later. "He said that they cleaned you out. So I said that I'm on my way." Smith said the majority of the weapons he had out were handguns, shotguns and rifles.

Just do what a bunch of other FReepers do to avoid dupes; just post vanities.

I agree.

Two of their training camps are within a 90 minute drive of my house, and another one is up in Fairfax, about 3 hours’ drive north of me.

I always on the alert for suspicious activities.

All should pick Night Vision Gear. When they kill the grid and come out at night you will be able to know what trouble is about.

No, no.

This article is not a dupe.

I was linking to an article about a guy from Muslims of America who is telling his people to arm-up.

Sorry for any confusion I caused.

Tampa (and surrounding areas) residents should put guns on their Christmas shopping list.

Yep. That's Him.
Also notice that they are all wearing the same hoodies.
That doesn't seem to be the profile of Rap Stars and Street Thugs.
My fear is that we will be seeing these guns in action soon.

Yep - even convenience stores are pretty much surrounded by the posts on vulnerable sides these days - makes one wonder why pawns shops/gun stores wouldn't have had this for years by now.

"This kind of robbery presents quite a puzzle for security."

Not at all....a few lengths of oil drilling pipe sunk vertically across the front of the store provides an excellent deterrent. The local Office Depot store near me has just such a barrier in place.

The vehicle looked like a white Jeep Grand Cherokee, circa 2004. Not a lot of them in the Central Florida vehicle inventory. Should be an easy one to track down with front end damage.
