This is hilarious. Robbers puts down money for ammo. Clerk tells him it's not enough. Robber pulls gun and says empty the register. Clerk sees robber's gun isn't loaded, pulls his. Robber does a 180 and runs out of the store, leaving his money behind.

I guess he forgot he was in the store to buy ammo.

He must have only had a $50 bill to try and buy a box of 9mm. Seems like it takes more than that these days at some stores.

There are a few places where a would-be bad guy should think twice about pulling a gun. Gun stores like the one in the story come to mind, as do shooting ranges and police stations......

I would add "my home" to your list...

Given the prices some stores are charging, it would be a good debate over who is robbing whom. :smash:

I wonder if the clerk was charged with aggregated robbery since he pulled a gat and kept the loot :)
