    Sadly I was thinking the same thing. However I like shooters edge sales so I'm sad to hear the news.

    Wow, when I first watched it I thought "there is no way someone would have stayed if they had one of these"...
    The people must have known you had those set up.. They probably checked your store from the inside first.

    I hope they catch the idiots that robbed you!

    Proof that centralized firearm storage is a very bad idea.

    Twenty handguns stolen from Calgary's Shooting Edge in latest break-in

    BY JENNA MCMURRAY,CALGARY SUN
    UPDATED: MONDAY, MAY 26, 2014 01:21 PM MDT



    Police are investigating the theft of handguns at a Calgary shooting range after the second break-in there in just over two weeks.

    J.R. Cox, owner of The Shooting Edge at 510 77 Ave. S.E., said his employee arrived to the range Monday morning to find a front window smashed in.

    Cops believe more than 20 firearms were taken.

    On May 11, police say a man forced his way into the Shooting Edge and used a baseball bat to smash open a display case and steal 11 handguns.

    That man was wearing a black hoodie, blue jeans, red gloves with grey pals, and white shoes.

    Cox said after that incident, security was in the process of being upgraded, with new stainless steel mesh window coverings being installed Monday, one day too late to stop the most recent break-in.

    Cox also said while the store has drive-by patrols, he plans to have a guard stationed outside from closing to opening until all of the security upgrades are complete.

    He said with the new installations he will have invested about $200,000 in protecting the range.

    It's frustrating and embarrassing, he said, that both break-ins have happened despite the security he already had in place, including an alarm that he says was not triggered and $80,000 worth of high-definition security cameras.

    "We're pretty mortified," he said.

    "That guns get on the street from here scares the crap out of us."

    The police investigation is looking into whether the two offences are connected and if a description from the most recent break-in can be obtained through surveillance footage.

    Anyone with information about either case is asked to call police at 403-266-1234 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
