    Default Another Gun Shop Burglary

    I have only seen this on the ABC 27 site. 43 guns stolen from York County shop. I'm not sure what kind of security these places have, but maybe they need to double down.

    In retrospect,I was the part owner of a Gun shop In the Poconos 14 years ago,a regular morning picking up from a distributor,when getting to the shop police activity and cordoned off FBI allowed me access while transporting my partner by airflight.I located a hidden compartment that had the full scenario assiting greatley in the apprehension of 3 crimminals.I will note to say partner left shop locked went for coffee and returned all the while not having a firearm with him to protect himself.Had I been 15 minutes earlier maybe the robbery would not have occured or maybe ended with the loss of life of the robbery suspects.GOD answers all prayers !

    I agree! But it wont happen, some people are to lazy to work so they steal what they need. My local gun shop has had several burglary attempts. The alarm is set off and they flee. The owner also has other measures in place to prevent thefts while closed. He puts all hand guns in a safe and secures rifles with cables through the trigger guards. Other than shoplifting, and only one case that I know, he has never lost a single gun.

    There is a gun shop near me that was burglarized twice, and its right down the street from a police station.

    Hmm the M.O. of this was very similar to the Trop job. They found three of Trop's stolen firearms in a car in York. Too many connections and I don't believe in coincidences....

    Hmmm Now another in West Manchester, 3 Gun Shops in Lancaster and York in the last month. Yup nothing to see here, all coincidence right?

    These gun shops might want to enhance security on their own before someone passes a law requiring expensive security upgrades for FFL holders.

    Could use more security measures on the windows if it's the same shop I'm thinking about.

    But wouldn't it be offensive to see bars on the windows?

    It would be funny if that kind of thinking were not true.

    ^This reminds me of the idiots in Philly telling shop owners that they have to remove the protective bullet resistant glass between the customers and employees.
