Burglars did some unauthorized early Christmas shopping at Lynchburg Pawn Thursday morning, according to Lynchburg police.
Burglars gained entry through the back of the building before smashing several gun cases and stealing 23 new high-quality semiautomatic pistols, according to the police press release.
The pistols included models by Sig Sauer, Glock and Ruger, as well as an imported semiauto-matic AK-47 clone with an 11-inch barrel and no buttstock classified as a pistol by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Police ask anyone with information regarding the break-in to call (434) 455-6054 or Crime Stoppers at (888) 798-5900.

How hard is it going to be to solve this one?
Every Republican in Lynchburg has been telling me for months that Obama is going to take all the guns.
Guess they were right.
Next, we are all going to wake up on Christmas morning and find out we are Muslims!
Why the hell didn’t I listen?
