It's too bad a claymore would require a NFA tax stamp but it seems like the store owners could mount a 12ga under the counter and take care of it themselves.JALLEN wrote:Not a new problem. One of my uncles ran some 7-11 type stores in the Houston area in the '50's. He said he lost track of all the times he found himself looking down the barrel of a gun. The HPD got tired of it, formed a special squad to go around and sit in walk in coolers at night. If you saw the gun, the gun, not some lipstick case in a jacket pocket, etc. you pushed a button on the floor and dropped, whereupon a police officer came out of the cooler with a 12 ga. and took care of it, no "stick 'em up," no "you have the right to remain silent," etc. He claimed that as photos and stories appeared in the Post, the incidence of convenience store and liquor store robberies dropped to practically nothing.
