this X1000. i own many guns and love shooting as much as the rest of you guys, but i have zero desire to engage in a shootout in a bank over money thats insured
Ok, then what if the gun gets turned on you. Again, this is not about the money. I could give a rats arse about the banks insured money. That is not the point.

Exactly. It's very difficult to tell when a robber will decide to become a murderer. The only thing holding him back is his trigger finger.

a few things have already been brought up...
-bank robbers are there for the banks money and to exit quick, they aren't interested in engaging customers unprovoked
-bank policy is to let the robbery occur and solve the crime later, not deter it from happening in progress
-most bank robberies involve a note and a threat to a teller, there aren't many heat or point break style bank robberies and shootouts where a customer would be forced to defend oneself
customers carrying in a bank has more risk than reward
