Someone broke into Elmore's......

[jsx1043]

All kinds of odd. If this was premeditated, the guys would have been in there before and known to bring bolt cutters. Hrm.

MY thoughts exactly!

 

[spasmo]

Must have been ammo that accounted for the price difference...

 

[bobzilla]

They also mentioned a pistol and suppressor as other items stolen.

I thought it a bit interesting that FOX news didnt linger on the assault rifle aspect, but instead focused on the fact that it was a rare collectible rifle. Hopefully these jackwagons decide that its too conspicuous to keep around, try to sell it and get caught because of it.
Funny thing is that its all caught on video at the store. Maybe that will be all that is needed to catch the criminals.

Fox59 reported an "AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, a semi-automatic handgun and a silencer." No real media embellishment on the live broadcast, just the "silencer" misnomer.

ETA: "Valued at $10,000." Must've been from this collection, or valued at Don's Guns pricing:

OMG ! ! ! Somebody stole Paris Hilton's gun collection!

Greenwood Gun Store smash and grab

wxin - Burglars crash SUV into Greenwood gun store, steal weapons

Fox just said the rifle was a rare knights armament sr-15 only 100 made.

The guns are not cabled during business hours.

I am confused. Since everything I know comes from the Evening News I know that every long gun is an AK-47 and every short gun is a Glock. I also know that all of these are fully automatic and can actually jump up and shoot people without any human intervention whatsoever. Since Brian Williams and Katie Couric could never be wrong, please tell me what this AR thing is.

 

[GustavHalbach]

Did they get the cigars too????

[Woodro29]

If the cigars where taken that might account for the price issue.

I know exactly what AR15 they stole..... and trust me..... It puts the total to 10 grand.......
It is part of a Knight's Armament\Nighthawk 1 of 100 combination set...... The pair is highly desirable.... but now the set is broken and all collectors value ruined......

My wife just told me that Elmores ( right around the corner from us) was hit last night!
Evidently they drove a vehicle through the front glass.
News said the thieves got an AR-15, a 22 handgun, and a silencer, said the value was $10,000???????? How can those three items add up to $10,000?
they say damage to the building was $25,000.


Edit: posted in break room before I found this thread.

I was planning on driving down there today to look at a 338lm. Believe it or not. I guess I will have to take off another day for my quarterly Elmores and Outdoorsman visit.

Well, that's gonna be hard to do anything profitable with.
AS SOON as they try to pawn or sell it anywhere (except on the streets) they will be caught.
And I hope they throw away the key.

Notice that the barrel has a Golf ball dimple pattern..... Shouldn't be too hard to spot.....

 

[ultraspec]

^^I dont care what anyone says they ruined that 1911 by dimpling the slide on it.

I get sick when I see that 1911.

 

[printcraft]

It should always be the first choice to steal something that is rare and can't be mistaken for any other AR.....

Criminal masterminds.

Probably had been in there before and saw the price tag......
"Man, that gun is like 10 grand!"
It's 10 grand to a collector...... not to a pawn shop.

 

[brutalone]

Yeah..... Just sickening that they made it so much more rare then all the other bastardized versions of JM Browning's 1911 designs and then limited it so much as to triple its value......
Absolute sacrilege....
