One of the local gun shops in NoVA got hit by two smash and grabbers.

Just a heads up, be wary of any "too good to be true" deals.

I thought guns had to be in a safe at night ?

Well that sucks.  And if that is the best picture they have, their best chance is to catch someone involved while trying to move them.


Everything that was taken has a serial number and has been reported to the appropriate departments

They should post that list somewhere, along with the models.  Make it known.  Deputize us all.

If they were not putting them in the safe every night, I am surprised they did not have some better physical security than just a glass front door/window. Their store front is not that larger, how hard would it have been to have some type of roll down barrier door installed.

Probably the same mopes that burglarized the Rockville,MD gun store a couple of days ago. Physical security works 24/7.  An inner, roll down gate would have definitely slowed them down. Another thing to take into consideration in strip mall locations is the roof and walls separating the businesses next door. So far, they're e only targeting the brick/mortar stores but for all you kitchen table FFLs out there, your address is on the internet, please safeguard your family and inventory. The McAwful administration is looking for any excuse to take a swipe at the firearms industry.


Conspiracy theorists can loosen their tinfoil hats, the local constabulary are giving their gun shops extra attention as a result.

 It's terrible news to hear that 35 firearms are now in the hands of criminals.  For those that "occasionally" carry, please think twice about not carrying and carry more often.  Stay alert and be safe!
