Aside from the staff, the clientele of a pawn shop is probably close to 100% armed. Darwin Award.

Over the years I have become good friends with the fellows that run the local gun/pawn shop and have been behind the counter and such and there are guns everywhere under the counter and most of the staff open carries.

I was in there a few years back and a couple of rough looking guys came in acting strange. I was near the firearms section and noted the staff all had noticed their entrance and behavior and they began moving without a word to different sections of the shop. I moved as well to a place where I wouldn’t get caught in a possible crossfire. These two acted real squirrely for about ten minutes and then beat a hasty retreat having not really looked at anything or bought anything.

The pawn shop did the community a favor in removing this slug from the gene pool, although I await the video where the wailing creature who gave birth to it tells us what a good boy he was and how he wouldn’t hurt anyone despite his lengthy criminal record...

Had a guy try and holdup a local pawn shop with a knife. He comes in a pulls the knife, the guys working thought it was a joke because they all open carry. The dumbass advances on the workers, workers pull out guns, dumbass continues to advance toward the employees. Dumbass gets shot, only in floriduh

Funny you should mention that. I once had a fender bender in front of Dunkin’ Donuts. We didn’t have to dial 911.

Picked the wrong place, huh? Too bad, his momma will be on tv tonight talking about what a good boy he was. Before he got shot.
