DCN: Wood TV reported Friday that last month a brave armed citizen “calmly” shot an armed robber multiple times for trying to rob a gas station called Stone Lake Marathon.
The incident reportedly happened on July 27 but surveillance video was not released until this past Friday.
The thug, 35-year-old Corelius Martin, entered the store boasting “you know why I’m here” and threatened the store owner with a box cutter before catching a hail of bullets.
The video starts off by showing the customer holding a six-pack of Miller Lite while Martin, who is dressed in black, walks in.
Martin then goes behind the counter and approaches the store clerk with the box cutter.
The customer, who has a valid concealed-carry permit, pulls out his handgun and fires six straight shots while holding his beer. He then fires one last bullet a moment later. More

He couldn’t do that with a six pack of Bud Lite.

I never tire of reading these types of good guy stories.
@Brad: I saw a Butt Lite truck today. My first thought was “I wonder if the guy driving is gay?” And if I had the chance, I would ask where Mulvaney’s pic is on the truck. I bet the driver gets the butt of all jokes. 🙂

Priceless image. The ultimate FAFO.
That should become a meme…and a T-shirt.

I was eating lunch with a bunch of coworkers today.
Someone mentioned butt light. I almost said “Don’t you mean tranny fluid?” but I held my tongue.

He shot a Siek?

grayjohn, no man. I think the dude just freaked out when he heard the shot. Weird reaction.

THAT HAS TO REMIND A LOT OF US OF DIRTY HARRY CALMLY KILLING BANK ROBBERS WITH HIS .44 WHILE EATING A HOT DOG

Again one of my pet peeves: the anchors said the customer shot, but then said the “suspected” robber. Why do they declare the one took an action that could lead to criminal charges but the other was declared only to be a suspect of a criminal offense?

Irrelevant to your point, but my lasting memory of that movie is when he described his load he used in the gun. It was a weak .44 special load. So, technically, it was NOT the most powerful handgun in the world at the time. The gun’s possibilities? Yes. The load he said he used in it? Not at all. Far from what it was capable of.
Not even close. It was a “manageable” .44 special load so weak he could re-acquire the target quickly after each shot.
It’s like saying a .357 magnum pistol does so much particular damage, but the round actually used was a weak .38 special load.
Doesn’t matter what the gun is if a weak load is used in it. My 10mm being fed Federal weak-load 10mm ammo is truly the same as firing target 40sw ammo. What’s the point in having a 10mm if you’re not firing anything stronger than a regular 40sw?
Same with .357 vs .38 special from the same gun. One assumes more power with the higher caliber load. Don’t be fooled. Pay attention to the numbers.

HA! Yeah. Pick your battles. They aren’t all equal.
This might be one of those “nod” comments between like people.
Those who know, know. Those who don’t know… right over their heads. Just like it should be during the Apocalypse.

“One would think this armed, vigilant citizen would be receiving a medal for his actions. Instead, he faces possible jail time.”
No shit. In California he would have already been found guilty. I’m thinking Michigan isn’t far behind Cali.
Was our man Mr Sixpaks life in danger? No. Did he use equal force? No. Did he give the pavement ape a chance to surrender? No. There’s a lot more I could list but those three will send him to the big house.
It’s a screwed up system. I would have given him the medal.

Dadof4, Sonny Crockett carried a Bren 10.
You ever fire one of those?
BTW, I occasionally watch the “too much sugar in his coffee” scene.
He also say’s “Nobody puts ketchup on a hot dog!” in another scene…
“Dadof4, Sonny Crockett carried a Bren 10.

Not many people have. It seems they had pretty good control of their supply chain when Miami Vice made their weapon famous for a couple weeks. Except for mags. They went tits up because they could not deliver. Decent gun. I’ll stick with a 1911 in 45 acp.

I loved Miami Vice Brad and I remember a great Popular Mechanics issue that had all the cars, guns, and tech used on the show.
Had a section about the Bren 10.
It was pre-internet so I had been trying to figure out what he carried for quite a while.
I mean Rigg’s 92FS in Lethal Weapon was pretty easy to see.
Vice was hot when I got my first Sony BetaMax machine.
It was on Friday evenings so I always taped it.

Miami Vice actually did a ton to push pistol comp to where it is today. With the help of a pistol wiz, a visionary, by the name of Jim Zubiena. He pioneered appendix carry. He also taught Don Johnson how to shoot A gun. Remember this? Yea, that’s him. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. But sometimes slow is just fucking slow.
What? Dude drives the limo, opens doors for the clients THEN puts on gloves after his prints are everywhere.
I call ghetto logic.

Why does he drop the mag and empty the gun before placing it on his chest?
In case he isn’t dead?
He left the dude with a presumably loaded gun in his hand?
2
He wasn’t worried about his prints… he was in no database. He was worried about stink-finger.
Actually I don’t know what was going on. I remember that scene, and it made no sense even 40 years ago.
Here is one that makes sense. It’s for the bullet holes!

Glad the shooter is black. That means there will be no perverting the law to toss him in jail for killing a black criminal.

Agreed Mule, black on black is the best crime…
Actually in this case it was black preventing black crime, which is even better!
You would think it would happen more often?
Brothas put up with too much bullshit due to “culture”

BTW, I didn’t watch the video but I safely assumed the perp was black based on this clue:
“The thug, 35-year-old Corelius Martin”

Loco – this the issue? Only one that popped up and takes too long to thumb through it, so didn’t find the article.
CJ, I had that issue as well. Thanks for finding it.
It was another issue that had tech, gadgets, and perhaps speed boats they used?
I think Don Johnson may have been on the cover as well?
Or perhaps a corner cut out?
I was a subscriber so I had issues from 1977 – 1994 I think…

Legal in Michigan to shoot to protect someone else.
