Twenty-one guns were stolen and two hundred dollars from the cash register.
Owner, Tim Melton would not go on camera but says the back door to the store was pried open and 18 handguns and 3 long guns, two display cases where smashed with two boxes of gold rings were stolen.
Melton says having this many guns stolen from him is scary because people that steal this many guns usually do not use them for the right reasons and our probably being used on the streets of Fort Smith.
Police say they have a couple suspects who face burglary and theft charges and could make arrests soon.
