Crazy....I was just in there yesterday picking up my new Scorpion Evo, which had been sitting there for about 2 weeks as I'd been out of town

Seems the smash and grab with a stolen car thing is getting more and more common.

For a time when L&L guns down here was still in business their last location was an old bank. At night they rolled all the guns into the old vault, probably the only good way to stop this.

I see more and more shops installing either concrete blocks or steel bollards in front to prevent this.

Two in Denver this week. One had steel Ballard's from the last time they rammed a stolen car thru the front door

look at bear arms - i think ecology blocks would work,  especially in front of a sidewalk.

Can only do that if the landlord allows it to be done. Some don't because they consider them ugly.

They are already installed at the new store location (unrelated to this, was planned for from the beginning).

Yep.  Was thinking of that and a few other locations.  Problem with ecology block is that you need quite a bit of room to install them.  Bollards take up less room, but require more work on the sidewalk.  Plus, you don't want to go cheap with the bollards, but make them substantial and well anchored.
