84 guns stolen Bryan Tx

[DMC]

The great texas gun store in Bryan. The thieves entered the metal building through the sheet metal exterior. I hope they post serial numbers so we can help catch the bastards.

wow.... thats insane. where the guns not locked up at night ? the article doesnt say if they were removed to a rear safe over night.

I guess they were not secure. I live a few miles for this store, just never made it in there, so I don't know how there security is.

What was that crap about the guns needing to be registered? Any idea what he meant by that?

Seymour can register my butt as a deadly weapon if he wants as for my guns hell no. I wish people like that would just keep their mouth shut. I've had the same thing happen before when I had my glass company I had rented a steel building and the little suckers cut a hole in the back of it with tin snips then used my tools to cut the locks off the bay doors and stole 6 trucks and about $150k in tools, thank god for insurance. They got caught to trying to fence the parts off my trucks.

Back in Bryan in about 1965 or so when hardware stores and tire stores sold most of the guns, Parker-Astin or one of the others downtown had all of their rifles stolen. In that instance Bryan PD was on the job and got them all back. My mom bought me a Remington 700 BDL 7mm Mag at a tiny fraction of its cost when they got them back. The issue was a tiny scratch on the stock.

I hope the sheriff or PD gets them back.

No mention of those guns having been secured in a safe or otherwise having been locked up.

Tin building + guns inside = invitation to steal.

Be well.

I've been out there several times, it's not much of a building. Just a little steel shack, really. Can't believe they didn't have everything in a safe.

I imagine I'll be getting some notification, was out of the office today. If there is any information I can share, I will let you all know.

I went by there today, and visited a bit with the owner. Not that it changes anything, but it was mostly hunting rifles and shotguns that were stolen.

He says that they have a decent lead or two, from the video that captured most of the action.

Obviously it's smart to secure items the best you can, but I don't think it's fair to lay any blame on the store owner. The people that broke in and took the guns are the ones that did wrong.

Lets hope they are stupid and try to pawn them off at a local pawn shop.

I have spoken with one of the investigators from Brazos County and they have sent me a listing of the guns but have not given permission to share on this board. Mostly handguns with rifles and shotguns, nothing cheap, all quality.

My knee jerk response is they have probably gone to Mexico, but one never knows.

Hopefully they can develop the leads I know they have.

Shop owner said they didn't look like Mexicans... fwiw...

You said the shop owner also said mostly rifles and shotguns. Pawncop says the list is mostly handguns with rifles and shotguns.

Right, therefore I added the "fwiw"

Why would they need to steal guns to send to Mexico when they can just get them from Eric Holder?
