[QUOTE="Capm_Spaulding, post: 2889152, member: 17977"] So well ran they were easily broken into a few months back and the crooks spent all but a minute or less to steal several guns because the owner didn't bother to lock the guns up in any type of safe at the end of the day. I tried very diplomatically to have a professional conversation with them when it happened and they lost their temper and blocked me from their social media sites, so you could imagine my opinion on them at this point. They were whining about lost revenue on the news, but that was hardly the most important takeaway from what happened. I'm still waiting to see what crime those stolen ARs end up being used in. There was a thread on this a while ago, about gun owner responsibilities. My view may not be popular, but it doesn't have to be. All I know is there wouldn't be several stolen guns running around in the hands of ballsy criminals if they had invested in a better door system or at least a damn gun safe. Are crooks ultimately the one to point fingers at as the bad guys? Yes, but I still lock my guns up at night as it is just common sense. But I digress. I'll be reserving further comment til all the facts of what happened are in, because IF it was a rented gun to boot, it'll leave another black eye for that place and the people running it. Traumatic for the owners? Yes of course. I hope they enjoy a cold one tonight and drown their sorrows. But that's why you need to cross every t and dot every i along the way to minimize this nonsense when you're in the gun business. [/QUOTE]
