Use the Gun Goofy

This is an old story from February 2007, but it should be duly noted by the readers:

Men Followed From Shooting Range, Robbed Of Guns

quote:

Oviedo police think two people may have been followed home and robbed after they left a local gun range…

"As far back as I can remember, this is the first time we've had anybody robbed for their guns at gunpoint," said Det. Adam Egert, Oviedo Police Department…

The stolen semiautomatic handguns are a .45 caliber Kimber, worth $1,200, and a .40-caliber Sigsauer, which gun shops sell for about $600.


Gun Shy thinks that is someone tried to rob me of my gun(s), I would quickly deem that the appropriate time to enter into a lead exchanging competition in an attempt to see whose shooting skills were in better working order. Maybe the victims had no intention of ever using their guns for self defense. In that case, they should have pursued another hobby. Weapons retention is an important part of firearms training, and Gun Shy would put that high on the list of skills to master early on in ones firearms training experience.
