[quote]MANATEE -- A gunman robbed a Cortez Road mattress store this afternoon, according to the Manatee County Sheriff's Office.
About 2:20 p.m., the suspect walked into American Mattress, 2115 Cortez Road, and laid on a few mattresses. He then went to the counter, pointed a gun at an employee and said, 'Give me the money," a news release states.
The suspect went behind the counter, opened the cash drawer and took an undisclosed amount of cash. He then fled north across Cortez Road and through the parking lot of a Home Depot store, according to the sheriff's office.
Deputies used a K-9 dog to search the area, but the suspect was not located.
The sheriff's office described the man as being in his 20s, standing 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighing 140 pounds. He was wearing a tan rag on his head, white shirt, a bright yellow reflective vest and black jeans. His weapon was described as a dark gray and black handgun.
Anyone with information about the robbery can call the sheriff's office at (941) 747-3011 or Crime Stoppers at (866) 634-TIPS.[/quote]

A handgun isn't going to be fucking rainbow coloured.

yeah my step mom doesn't know shit about guns. she tried describing it to us, and we think its a .40 caliber glock maybe. we think the gun was not loaded.

Depends on the gun

Now that would be a solid clue to go on.

Dark grey and black is the usual colour scheme on a gun. Well, at least no-one was hurt.

What did she say about it? "Black and Grey" really doesn't narrow it down much.

Depends on what reskin you downloaded.
[QUOTE=OvB;23484369]What did she say about it? "Black and Grey" really doesn't narrow it down much.[/QUOTE]
she said that the frame was square kind of and dark grey. it kind of looked like a gun one of the cops had. she said the guy cocked the gun twice, but since she was in the heat of the moment she really couldn't tell. she said the gun was right in her face. he also threatened to kill her.
it was semi auto. my dad knows more about the describing on the gun. shes kinda shooken up from the whole thing.
now my dad is bringing the S&W model 36 loaded with hollow point ammunition to the store.
Must feel strange knowing your parents shop got robbed.

Could be a glock. Easy to get and cops do carry them.

we dont know for sure, but he only got like 60 bucks. and they narrowed down his location to an apartment.
Glocks don't have a manual decocker or manual safety.
If he pulled the slide back twice then he ejected a round and you should probably alert the police about this because there may very well be a round laying around to prove the caliber of firearm.

No rounds were ejected.

How do you know, are you the OP?
[QUOTE=Asswipe;23484664]How do you know, are you the OP?[/QUOTE]
Friends. He told me about it.
[QUOTE=Asswipe;23484664]How do you know, are you the OP?[/QUOTE]
Maybe he knows how to read?
Did he rape your mom at gunpoint?
[QUOTE=JDK721;23484561]Glocks don't have a manual decocker or manual safety.[/QUOTE]
Glocks do have a safety but it cannot be enabled or disabled it is located within the trigger so that you can only fire it if you are holding it correctly.
You can also modify this system, (Somehow, only a rumor though) which makes it pretty much fully automatic. (Really its just bump firing though). I own a Glock 19, and I have never attempted this.

Yea since it says in the OP specifically 'There were no rounds ejected'.
:downs:
[QUOTE=Asswipe;23484664]How do you know, are you the OP?[/QUOTE]
no rounds were ejected, the cops were looking for it.. nothing. thats why we think the gun was not loaded in the first place.
no he didnt rape my step mom and she thought that he was gonna. tbh shes too ugly to rape. i didn't wanna hurt her feelings.
they took fingerprints and all, tomorrow we have to clean the fingerprint dust up.
Walked in, took the money, and bounced out huh

They don't have a [B]manual[/B] safety. They have three internal safeties.

I was affirming what you said. I knew someone would misinterpret what you said so I supported it.
Edit: Honestly I doubt the gun type has anything to do with this unless they have a direct description of what the person looked like, or if the gun was purchased within the past 6 months.

not exactly.. he was in the store for a good 15 minutes. he was pretending to buy a bed, which my step mom knows he wasnt gonna buy. she said she had a feeling he wasn't a good guy because he was asking really weird questions. he was basically indirectly asking if there was another person there, specifically male.
he also was trying to corner her the whole time it seemed. he was also black and ghetto so that tells you something...

funny thing is, there was a coffee shop (with apple computers set up)to the left and a 7/11 to the right of the store. he ran across the street to an apartment complex.

Yea I'm in the Ku Klux Klan so I completely understand what you are talking about.
Although us Klan members try not to be racist, stuff like this just slaps us in the face and forces us to think these sort of things.
