Once inside the store, the man was able to enter a locked firearms cabinet, RCMP said, grabbing four firearms along with ammunition. He then fled out the same front door, and into a parked car where another male driver was waiting.
The firearms stolen are a Mossberg Patriot Night Train 300, bolt action, Mossberg Maverick hinge action shotgun, Ruger 10-22 .22 rifle, Savage Model Rascal Target .22 bolt action rifle.
