Security cam video of airsoft store theft

[EastCoastShooter]

Black Dog Airsoft in Summerside PE was broken into last night and had a few things stolen. Not sure of what was taken yet but you can see they got a few things. Hopefully these idiots will be apprehended and the airsoft guns will be returned.

A pretty good shot of one dude who didn't cover his face, hope these asshats get what's coming to them.

Another +1.

Little surprised that airsoft store didn't seem to have tougher passive defenses like bars or security screens. Maybe more places need to upgrade their security?

Looks like a bunch of teenagers who had nothing better to do.

Not even a gun store needs that unless dealing with restricted firearms...

That's crazy - I can't understand the slow response time of law enforcement. When I was going to school in PEI police were like flys on shit when they were called. I am sure it's only a matter of time before they are caught - they are wannabe big fish in a really small pond

Many computer stores have bars or security screens, not in the sense to keep the restricted items in but just to protect the high-valued goods they sell. Computers are expensive, but so are airsoft guns.
It seems like stores in smaller communities around Maritime don't use those as much as the stores in major cities. It is awful such thing happened in Summerside.

Couldn't agree more 8774.

True, that's a company decision. TBH, if someone wants in, you can't stop them. I remember some months back a shopper drug mart's wall was cut or smashed down after work hour by the robbers and took a bunch of expensive stuff.It's pre planned event they got in and out so fast. They had screen doors and such but still got screwed and they are a huge corporation...

Small town stores usually don't do any of those. It's expensive for smaller stores to handle those costs especially relaying on local customers. Not sure about airsoft stores, but real guns profit margin is so minimum that the shops barely make much or even sometimes sell it at cost to keep customers. (I'm just saying that high-value goods doesn't mean it has much profit margin, so it's a lot harder for the smaller guys to put in more security)

Did they have any trouble at the old location further out of Down town?

[EastCoastShooter]

I know he had a break in before and I think it was at his old location, though I'm not certain.

Security door/window bars may not keep everyone out but would probably help prevent this sort of low-level smash and grab from happening. With that said, those sorts of things aren't cheap.

Hopefully these little shits are caught and the guns returned. I'm still not sure what all was taken but I can only imagine this would leave a pretty big dent in their bottom line. We only have 2 airsoft stores in the entire province for god sakes, we can't afford to lose any.

The owners of the store are good friends of mine. Yes his previous location was broken into.

Summerside police have recovered some of the items stolen, but specifics have not been released yet. With any luck the pieces of shit that did this will be caught. I do A LOT of business there and watching that video made me feel personally violated.

The owners of the store are 2 of the greatest and nicest people you could do business with. They did not deserve this, not that any business owner does.
