Hey give me my gun back!

[cedartop]

I see where someone in the comment said that the gun with the extended magazine is actually the BG's and the one he stole is in his other hand. Hard to see if that is the case. Makes sense though.

ah bugger, I just found this and was going to post it. Beat me to the punch!

ASP should be required viewing material for all citizens, especially those who exercise their second Amendment rights.

That guy had zero situational awareness.
I'm curious about what he had in his hand, wallet, phone. Maybe he was trying to pay?

He didn't even give those two a glance.

You are not wrong, but that is not the only factor at play here. None of us IRL can be situationally aware at all times. A lot of people talk a good game, and we should strive towards the goal, but there are just too many distractions.

You're right, people can't always be on the top of the game. But this guy didn't even appear to notice them at all.
I am curious about what he was doing. I'm thinking counting money maybe. It doesn't really matter, but my interest is piqued.

THey must have seen him and the pistol sticking out when he went in because the perp appeared to be looking for it.

AND for those who would like to infringe upon them.


Some folks change their tune when they see animals violently attacking people just like them, and their family.

Situational awareness is really important and this guy seems to have none. Back in the day I was certified as an Illinois CCW instructor and that was something I always talked about. One example I used was a female student at University of Illinois was walking back to her dorm at night. She has ear buds in, wearing a hoodie and looking at her phone when struck from behind and robbed. She wasn't even a witness at her own mugging. Jim.

...I'm thinking counting money maybe...

When I'm getting change, I watch the cashier and count the bills as they're being pulled out of the drawer (I don't worry much about any coins). That way, I know it's right before it's handed to me. If I'm in a situation where I'd rather not pull my wallet out again, I just shove the bills in my pocket and go.

Looks staged to me ?

I'm betting the dope with the gun in his pocket was scoped out by the mopes who stole it - as the dope was walking in to the store.

Dope gets scoped by mopes; gets his nope-nope snatched for his troubles.

Also: The type of criminal that you really don't want to have an encounter with is the kind of criminal to not be deterred by OC-ing.

In a time long ago I attended a class taught by the great yogi “BBI”. He covered this situation with real life videos as well.

I dare say the removal of a firearm from person is not as rare as one would think.

I have often stated that lots of bad people out in the wild. Those meanies will take your talisman and put it in your prison wallet.

Is it common to just carry with a holster in your pocket like that? I know they make holsters for the pocket. but they are hidden. Seems like he just stuck a IWB holster in his pocket and walked out the door. Would love more experienced input.

I give you: The IDIOTIC Carry thread

This thread is here to take the pressure off those who would dictate how others should act. Please post all of your videos, articles, pictures and anecdotes about individuals that act stupidly in carry situations.

You will not find a more wretched hive of scum and villany, despite Old Ben Kenobi's assertions.

I see people carrying with no holster from time to time. Some people just buy a firearm and think, "Now im protected, my job is done here"
