Hole left in side of Indy gun store, IMPD now investigating whether it was caused intentionally by burglars

[KMaC]

WTHR's updated story says they got 10 guns.
It also says that Shoot Point Blank's new store at Rockville/Country Club was burglarized January 4th. That would have been right around the time of their Grand Opening.

Site won't let me attach the WTHR story link.

They were close.....

 

[KMaC]

Close is better than their usual reporting.

I spoke with Guy. He said they got very little of what they could have and no ammo.

Good... scum-sucking bastards go home with a wrecked car and not much else. Too bad they didn’t go to the hospital or straight to hell with a few extra holes in them.

That didn’t take long... what a ****hole the area I’ve lived in and lived for so long has become. **** all you thieving bastards.

Gang-banging with a bolt-gun. I'm thinking an 1898 Springfield in .30-40 Krag would be a better choice. Sweet bolt action, side-loading internal magazine. Plus everyone in the car won't be deaf after the first shot.

They couldn't hear the shots over the stereo...

Uh, not correct. I just acquired a 16 ga Winchester Model 12. Even though I reload I didn’t have any hulls so I bought a couple flats of new shells so I’d have something to reload. Browning and Fiochi just to name two.

Google search produced several suppliers had them in stock. Not the cheapest shell, but not as bad a 28 ga or .410 bore. If you need so,e I can supply the source I used.

Uh, what's that line from the movie 'Stripes'...

I'm a lean, mean, fighting machine?

Where's your Drill Sgt. son?
Blowed up Sir!

 

[Aggar]

The good news is I don't think you can even find 16 gauge ammo right now.

Saw some today.

So true, and that really pisses my Sweet Sixteen off. She won't eat 12 or 20, something about allergies or something.

Highly doubt they used their own vehicle, which means the gun shop wasn't the only victim in this crime. Just hope the assholes, I mean prepetrators, are caught sooner rather than later.

When my former home in Indy was burglarized the thieves made off with my Mosin Nagant. I still chuckle when thinking about Lil Pookie rolling through 30th and Sherman or 10th and Tibbs hanging out the window of an Impala blasting fools with a 91/30.

I picked up an empty .338 WinMag case off the street at 24th and New Jersey while at IPD, summer 1990.

Crap, that is near Mom and Dad's place.

You could have heard that at 56th and Keystone.

It was a stolen car.

joe is going to have to put concrete filled poles in his parking spot alongside the building. if he does that he may as well put some around back of the building it’s just a matter of time till they try again. let’s hope they get caught
