This is one of another recent long gun robbery in the area. Since I have eaten there quite a bit over the years, this scenario of long-gun, shotgun, and handgun by 3 robbers is just over the top to comprehend this close to where I frequent.

That is a bit strange to see. Usually it's all pistols.

Yes, and it makes you wonder just what one could do CC in this type of rush-in. Shotgun being the most alarming.

Very little if they're even half way proficient.

If you were going to try anything, better make sure you see them well before they get inside. Also hope the place isn't very full, and they aren't skilled (at all). Three to one odds, with you being outgunned isn't something I would like to try if I could help it.

Investigators recovered a single shell casing, Lt. Chad Waggoner said. Witnesses told police that more than one shot had been fired, but the casing was the only physical evidence of gunfire. It was not clear Friday which weapon had fired the shot.
Don't all three firearms listed shoot very different ammo? I understand a long gun can be chambered in 9/40/45, but doubtful.

Yes I agree 3:1 affects the situation greatly. Hope they get caught quickly.

In a situation like that, your best bet is to just comply.

Your only chance of winning would be for them all to be distracted until you fired the first shot (shotgun guy gets that one). Still, winning depends a great deal on whether there's an angel sitting on your shoulder. There is just no maneuvering room in a WH. You're pretty much rooted to one spot, which is an almost guaranteed death sentence.
Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence. - John Adams
