Glock 19 stolen

lilshaunsdad · Jun 11, 2012

Someone stole my glock 19 out of my truck friday night. I usually don't leave it in my truck but it was raining pretty hard when I got home so I left it in there. Got up Saturday morning and it was gone :mad:

. If anyone has any info please contact me.

Hope you have the serial number off of it. Keep an eye out in the local pawn shops.

Dammit man, that sucks.

lilshaunsdad · Jun 11, 2012

Yeah I filed a report, and I will be checking pawn shops. It just pisses me off, I work two jobs to get by and some low life scum came onto my property and stole something that I work hard for.

Scott.Thornton · Jun 11, 2012

And yeah that does suck, I've been lucky so far and haven't lost one.

I usually get it out every evening, but because of the rain I didn't want to get it wet. The sheriff deputy said "you left a weapon unsecure in your truck"? My wife looked at him and said "if you only knew how much that pistol meant to him you wouldn't have asked that". I take really good care of all of my firearms. I'm kickin myself for not going out there later that evening and getting it.

Your insurance company should cover your window, or whatever they broke to get it, thought. At least that is a silver lining?

dammit bro... never EVER leave it outside... how long was it out there? Was your truck broke into to get it? Did they take anything else? Where was it in the truck?

I'm not understanding your wife's statement???

I've lost a POS Explorer .22 out of my car once and decided that was enough. I bring my weapon in with me even if I have to unload it and put it in my waistband. It makes me nervous to have to park somewhere with like a shotgun or rifle in it. I've seen kids walking around in parking lots and looking into random car windows

ETA: either way I hope you get it back in short order

My wife basically said that I take very good care of my firearms and he kinda added insult to injury. They took it between 10 friday night and 5 saturday morning. They took a gps out of her car. I kept inside of the arm rest of my truck.

All common places to hide valuables, and a GPS is usually a prime target. That's why you take it into the house with you. Many people do not even like the suction cups because they leave tell-tale signs that something electronic lives there and make your car a target. Mainly, fixing both of OP's vehicle's windows or door-seals or whatever got messed up is going to be annoying, although slightly less than the G19 loss

Was your vehicle unlocked?

It takes a while for stolen firearm end up in a pawnshop. It usually has to change hands a couple of times first.

charliepapa · Jun 11, 2012

well, if or when you get another one, don't worry about it getting wet. a little water shouldn't hurt a Glock if you can shoot them underwater! if it does get wet just strip it down a put a little oil on it.

A lot of those people just go shoot it 5-6 times, and then keep a full magazine in it. If they ever use it, it goes in the lake. I used to work with a few of the type when I was in the restaurant business (Because restaurants don't do background checks on BOH, or they just don't care. Not sure which).

That really sucks, that's why I never leave it in my truck, if I forget and remember I don't care what time it is I will go and retrieve it. I can't sleep a night if I know it's outside. My fear is if it's stolen it can be used on me r my family.

Yeah not many dumb enough to pawn or sell to pawn shop a stolen gun. They will find some guy that thinks he just got a great deal in a gunshow parking lot and then you'll have to wait until he gets in a bind and tries to pawn it.
