These days the gangsters are usually better armed than the shop
keepers.
Shotguns are probably the best deterrent but you need more than one
guy because of the limited ammo they carry, unless you have a Saiga or
similar with a box magazine.


It may be ugly enough but your daddy's 1897 Winchester has the same
fire power and magazine tube capacity. If you think you are
confronting a lot of evil do'ers I want a box magazine or 10.

It is pretty sad that these things mostly affect the small businesses
that are already in trouble from Covid.

It does explain why they have "food deserts" and the general lack of
other stores in these places. Who wants to build a business where your
customers burn you out every few years.
