Well, yeah, but if they arrange things so that the terrorists can't "just waltz in and start blasting", then their customers can't just waltz in and start buying.

Staying in business kinda requires stores & restaurants to have lax security, at least in terms of not restricting access to your public facilities.

I think... I'm not a security expert.
Metal detectors are pretty much useless when it comes to a Mumbai style attack. When someone comes in guns blazing a metal detector is irrelevant.

A friend of mine showed me one of these surefire 60 round mags that he keeps in his AR case in the car: http://www.brownells.com/magazines/rifl ... 42026.aspx. They are really proud of those things, but he says they work really well. Personally, I think that whatever you gain over a couple of 30 round mags, you lose in gun-handling ease.

:iagree: The extra weight really unbalances the gun. With the AK I've found that without being braced even with standard 30 round mags the extra weight of the metal mags reduces my accuracy out past 60 yards or so.
