Move Up or Move Over |
I misplaced a shield for 5-6 months. I was positive I'd hidden it when my nephews popped over for a surprise visit. I looked and looked and couldn't find it anywhere. Finally I found it where I thought I'd stuck it. I apparently didn't look good enough. Didn't let the nephews come around for that entire time. I just wan't comfortable thinking that if I turned my back for a second they would find it. New rule is no one comes over w/o calling first so that I have time to put things away properly. I KNEW it was in the house but I almost filed a report 3-4 times... So glad I found it. Mark | |||

No, I've looked in the same place twice for something and found it the second time. Or the third time. My mantle is cluttered with lots of "important" stuff. The last time I "lost" something important ... it was in a safe place I put it. And I swear, I must have glanced right at the spot six times | |||

Good deal. I'm glad it turned up and there was no shenaniguns at the dealership. A good lesson for us all. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves. -D.H. Lawrence | |||

You might feel bad for everything, but think about this... at least its not is the hands of a thief, felon or on the streets causing chaos. That should make you feel better. Happy outcome! | |||

Glad all turned out well, only mistake made is forgetting where the pistol was. No harm done and I bet you will not do that again. | |||

I have said "I bet I will not do that again" many times. It is very comforting. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." Mark Twain | |||

I am happy you found your pistol, Quang, and humbled that my post helped. It is also why I am no longer ashamed of my "footprints" in life. "the meaning of life, is to give life meaning" ✡ Ani Yehudi אני יהודי Le'olam lo shuv לעולם לא שוב! | |||

Well Mr 12131, that was like finding that $100 bill you thought had slipped out of your wallet, but instead was folded neatly between some business cards. Of course dimwits like myself go spouting off about securing guns, etc.. Glad you found your Ruger. 美しい犬 | |||

Kinda like getting a free gun ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one. Luke 22:35-36 NAV "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves." Matthew 10:16 NASV | |||

Glad you found it and a crime wasn't committed. That said, lets keep things in perspective...you did lose track of a firearm that doesn't appear to have been secured. We can all learn a lesson from this. ____________________________ NRA Benefactor Life Member GOA Life Member Arizona Citizens Defense League Life Member | |||

I did the opposite of this once, I found a gun in my trunk. If you have so many of the things you forget what you own it is time to downsize. I have been as low as 3 but...good deals and uppers getting lowers keeps the number around 8 (10). I keep the count low with high end optics and parts. ___________________________________________________ But then of course I might be a 13 year old girl who reads alot of gun magazines, so feel free to disregard anything I post. | |||

....there was that time a specialty historic 22 disappeared in my sector....for months....and months.....to the point after the 32nd 'search everywhere' routine it had fallen off the rear of a shelf in the safe and wedged between the wall & shelf. So small it was not visible, but detected due to careful palpation.
