Lost Pistol

Glad you found it and hope you are feeling better

I found a gun at H&H once...was a small 22 of some sort loaded and in a holster. It belonged to the people who were shooting next to us who brought a million guns with them and then forgot one. I turned it into the range staff who seemed surprised...not sure if they were surprised someone left a gun on the range or that someone would turn it in instead of swiping it. Made me feel good to know this guy got his gun back, assuming the range staff didn't pocket it of course.

If you lose one at OKCGC, send an e-mail to the guy that always sends out the volunteers e-mails. (can not think of his name) He will send out one asking if anyone found it.

Okay I will fess up. I left a range bag with 3 handguns on the roof of my car, drove about 3 miles before I looked at the empty seat beside me and was thinking something is wrong. I stopped and reached up and it was still up there, not that I am lucky like that, just had yet to fall off.

I'm not just gonna one up you, I'm gonna infinity up you.

We were heading out for a fast trip to San Antonio, TX (uncle's funeral), and as I finished packing the car, I set my Kimber .45 and Ruger SP101 on the sunroof while I dropped my bag in the back seat. We left Stillwater about 5-10 min later. About the time we got to OKC, I reached down to check on my gun by my seat. It wasn't there. After a few seconds, I realized what had happened. After that sickening feeling hit, and kept sinking all the way to my toes, I found an exit, and pulled off. Even though they weren't there, I had to check anyways.

They were there. No kidding. ~60 miles, back roads, highway, interchanges. They were still there. I've never felt so stupid in my life.

Wait, I've felt more stupid. Maybe I have the same thing jcizzle's dad suggested.

Now rather than feeling like an idiot for losing it, I feel like an idiot for posting about it.

Idiot, seriously, glad you found it. Just joking with you. I "lost" a gun at home once. I knew it was here, just took me awhile to find it.

Glad it all worked out for you. I hate misplacing things. It seems to be happening more frequently now.....

When I was still living at home before dad got a gun safe he had a real bad habbit of hiding guns in strange places, even my guns. He forgot where he put one once...my great grandpas remington pump .22. found it three months later.....

.... I helped an older gentleman pick up his brass at H&H. Someone walked off with my S&W 25-5 45LC, didn't even get to shoot it. Bought it 2 days before.

Cynical me says it sounds like you were set up.

There was a post link to an article, I believe on here, about a deputy sheriff, I don't recall where, that set his patrol rifle on the roof of his cruiser and forgot. He was driving down the road and people were honking at him to tell him the rifle, some how, was still on the roof. He stopped, the rifle slid off and hit the pavement.I'll bet he never lives that one down.
