We got robbed!

[jarndice]

Cops on the ground where the people can see them and talk to them NOT in patrol cars,
One downside it costs a fortune, but it's what the people want.

L1A1...old chap ? a good deterrent

!! Triangular forestock or oval ?!! Wood or composite furniture !!?(owned a bevy of them !)
My peacekeeper of choice was a Mossberg 590 Combat, cylinder bored 3" magnum chambered 20" barrel, with speed feed and ghost ring sights, iridium iron sight pointer, touch pad activated L.E.D. torch(flashlight) foregrip & M16 Bayonet lug (with bayonet-or not-your unfortunate choice)
First 3 rounds were genuine issue rubber 00-buckshot, the rest were 00 Federal real ones.

We call it burglary, I believe the English call it the same.
Either term, its a violation of your 'castle' and your personal space to the N'th degree.
I got told by the local law that after my place in Australia was done, that the hookers in Kings Cross had your wifes wedding ring on before the police were called...................
Just be thankful you were not in harms way, and you get to make plans to find an alternative...................I have a few mates here from South Africa that had neither, life has dealt them & their's a harsh blow, that I can say with shocking reality.

With any luck, they will porn your stuff for drugs & end up getting bad junk & writhing to a slow death.

triangular ,wood or composite,still the same outcome........

Yep, but the black composite would be a better class of revenge/justice I reckon !
I got hold of an L2 firing group for one of mine, and an L2 mag, now that was a hoot.
Traded them off for capital gain to fund other models.

There really is no substitute for the feel and the sound of a steel butt plate striklng the person of one of her majesty's enemies who had injurious intent upon one.

Oh this was the last straw! We're moving, leaning towards West Virginia that way I can keep my seniority with the rail road but we'll be out of this communist state.

Jackalope,

Sorry to hear about your misfortune...Sounds like to me you need to leave that state... I would never live in the north east for that very reason, you cannot (or they make it very very hard) to own a gun, the taxes are through the roof--for what? to pay the housing, welfare and food stamps of those who do not work just so they can rest all day and rob you at night..

Yeah my motto "1911, its faster than 911"

Cheers!

My lucky kid in Switzerland has both..1911 and the 911,although there's hardly any room in a 911 boot (Trunk:US) for the 1911! Still,this is his latest acquisition I'm itching to get my mitts on (complete with red dot sight). it would certainly scare the pants of any yard intruder when the dot flickered on the old marriage tackle great motto, by the way.

[jackalope]

Belive me had I caught them they would have been calling 911 themselves!

Here the thieves were caught by the police months later but only when the stolen items started to show up at pawn shops. Seems the leader of the group had carefully checked out the neighborhoods he was targeting and found any blind spots then would drop off a small group of kids who would run through the area remove items and place them in the blind spots after which he would drive through and load up his van with them. I once found my garbage cart loaded full of items that had been stolen from the block. Apparently he had to abandon his collection activity that night before he was finished.
Was notified by the police of his apprehension and trial but found out hat most of the stolen stuff was not recovered. Apparently he had been working this theft ring for years all over the city. He did end up in jail for a couple of years but all the kids got was some time in youth detention because he made sure they were all under age.
