Gun range robbed

Post by trent »

This just happened to the gun range I go to (and it's like 4 minutes from my house), they were robbed by some extremely organized criminals, they took about 80 guns, most being glocks and sigs, but they snagged a few rifles (one was a semi auto G3A3 you can see the guy at the bottom running off with it) and they may have also taken some FN stuff and ak's

the smoke you see is the pepper spray fogger going off (notice how It doesn't have much of an effect.

well, that kinda ruins my trip to the range I thought about making this week... (and makes the streets a bit more dangerous)

the Sheriff's office posted the video in hopes someone will recognize anyone, or more likely it will make someone brag to the wrong ears

wow, they basically pulled it off in a minute. These guys did seem very organized and efficient. Sure hope they nab these thieves before they get all of those guns into the wrong hands.

I suspect the guns left the shop in the wrong hands.

here's some more info from our local news

http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/myfox/pages ... 1.1&sflg=1

it's a long link may require some cutting and pasting, or go to the search thing on that website and type in Fayette Gun (in any order) and it should be the first link

That pepper spray fogger is worthless...they even seem to come back in for more in the middle of the cloud!!!

What a sin.

If criminals would put their creative minds to the greater good...what a world we would live in!!!

Update!!!

ok from talking around I found out that the fogger was only that (no pepper spray, sorry for the misinformation), but they have arrested 11 suspects!!!!! they took over 80 handguns but got about 0 magazines for the said guns, and several guys were caught when they were trying to buy mags at an army-navy store. They said the criminals were selling the arms in bulk to what I assume are black market distributors (no telling where they all are now)
