While I was in a Denver gun store today, my car was tagged on the wheel
in
the parking lot. The gangs do this on wheels or bumpers at gun stores,
shooting ranges, gun shows etc. Later when you are parked at a
restaurant,
hotel, or other location that's less well guarded or under video
surveillance, other gang members spot the marker and break into the car
for
a quick gun grab. This is so RAMPANT in San Antonio where we were for a
National shoot this summer, the police chief of that county came out to
brief the 400 participants of our competition. Too bad three teams had
already been victimized the first day. This is the first I've heard of
this
in Denver. Please pass this info along to your 2nd amendment list.
This next comment from a Gunsite instructor:
I don't know how widespread this is becoming, but the info regarding the
NSCA Nationals in San Antonio is correct, as all of us who compete in
sporting clays know. Competitors there were having their vehicles
marked
with a small adhesive dot on the rear license plate or rear bumper, then
followed for miles and having their vehicles quickly and efficiently
broken
in to when parked for lunch etc.
Some crews were working the parking lot at the Nationals itself. 27
high
end shotguns were taken there recently. They know when 1400 shooters
with
high $ competition guns are in town.
I shot with a young man who was trying out a new gun at the Nationals.
He
and his father lost all their guns and equipment while making a quick
stop
for lunch at a BBQ place in Corpus Christi the month before.
