to shoot back – with his AK-47 rifle – at four men who opened fire on his customers and

'They' say, "Nobody needs an AK-47", but I bet it's way more dispiriting to a would-be robber than a handgun, or even a shotgun (OK, the shotgun's probably close).

If you can pull the trigger fast enough there's not much that sounds more menacing than an AK.

Very good choice for "store defense", IMO!

One criminal dead, three more probably seriously reassessing armed robbery as a career path. Works for me. ;)
