Glock 19 stolen

[Hitman]

It used to be you could leave anything anywhere and didn't have to worry about it being stolen... Wait, that's when people had morals, they didn't steal because they knew it was wrong...

Yea, I mean what would Eve have wanted to steal from Adam?

I've never nor would I ever leave a firearm of any type in my vehicle unattended unless it were parked in a locked indoor garage. I've known a few people who had pistols stoled from their autos and almost everyone of their cars were unlocked when it happened.

I appreciate all the comments. The good and the bad. Trust me I already know I was wrong and am actually more pissed that someone came onto my property uninvited like that.

 

[lilshaunsdad]

Just thought about it too. I had a POS taurus 40 that "lived" in my truck for about 6 years. I just sold it about 2 months ago. It stayed in the door, and nobody ever stole it. Maybe it wasn't worth stealing?

I had a S&W Airweight stolen in 2008 along with my wife's car in the parking lot of OLOL hospital in Baton Rouge. I was trying to abide by the hospital "no firearms" policy, and she was in ICU for 30 days fighting for her life. I would still like to find the lowlife. Now I couldn't care less about a sign. It's not worth another stolen firearm. Concealed is concealed. Lesson too late learned. To the people on here bashing folks for leaving guns in vehicles, circumstances sometimes dictate that people have to do it, but it should be avoided unless absolutely necessary. My .02

And no, the keys were not left in it, and it was locked.

damn, y'all get the car back?

 

[br549]

Nope never got the car or gun back. There was a theft ring in BR at the time I found out later. GM f-bodies were in high demand at that time. The police said that all they needed was the vin and if you knew someone on the inside at a dealership they would simply make a key for you at the right price.

Man, sorry to hear that.

Sorry to hear about your glock being stolen.. Hope it turns up some how and back to you,

Guess I better go get my Lorcin out of my truck and bring it in tonight!

Start looking at people you know or people that know you then.

why you gotta booby-trap ur truck in lizzard creek?

 

[JWG223]

Yea, its also that cop that will recover the weapon after taking the 30 seconds or so to run a weapon, finds its stolen, and returns it to the rightful owner.

Do police take that kind of thing seriously? I know where I used to live, stealing stuff out of a vehicle/trying to steal a vehicle was boring stuff for them and they wouldn't even fingerprint the car unless they HAD to (you pestered them to). Maybe since it's a firearm that's on "another level", though.

 

[JWG223]

His nuts!

Based on some posts on this and other (ESPECIALLY! the 'vette forum I used to post on regularly when I had mine), she got and kept 'em in many cases!

Bring your gun in....

Leave one of these under the seat...

What I meant was in one of the posts above mine an individual was complaining of guns being run on traffic stops and having to wait a long time for a read back, that it only takes about 5-10 seconds to run a gun to see if it was stolen.

Sorry, I suck at E-sarcasm, but you can't be serious.

Ah, gotcha. My experience with LE when things are stolen and a car is broken into occured in Texas. It was so common near the border that they really didn't care, or do much about it. Just wrote down that it happened. That is probably part of why I feel the way I do about all the people that think calling 911 does much more than create a paper trail for use in court later.
