Feets / Collection / My build 1301...again

Saturday morning before I left to the range, I discovered that some junkie had liberated my 1301 from my truck. Weirdly enough they didnt take any of the ammo/gear I had on top of the case. Kept my cool during the whole process, made a report & gave em the serial number (obviously im never seeing it again). the cop that came by seemed to be a gun guy & was super chill, but at this point I was feeling absolutely gutted. After mourning my loss for a few hours, the wife gave me the green light to go out & replace it. Safe to say I am happy with the upgrade & im just glad to have a replacement. I got the black Gen 2 Mod 2, which was cheaper then my gen 1?? idk how that works but fuck it we ball.

I'm actually kind of surprised the cop was so cool. Where I live, a stolen firearm usually results in charges against the victim of the theft.

An older guy I worked with had his truck broken into while it was parked on the side of the road and his group was out in the forest hunting for deer. The smashed the window and stole about 6 guns. The cop taking the police report was giving them shit about not having trigger locks on the guns in the truck (why someone in the group gave them that info I’m not entirely sure), but the guy I knew got in the cops face and told them it’s easy enough to break one off anyway if you don’t care about damaging the gun so what’s the point. Cop ended up just letting them off with a warning not to do it again lol. We really are looked after by morons

I've seen cops leave their running cruiser and go into stores for more than "just a second". I assume there's a 12ga in the trunk.

Don’t some cruisers have one in some short of sheath on the center console? Lol
