Who has ever LOST a firearm?

[IndyGunworks]

like the title says... who has lost one, not had it stolen but you just misplaced it.... how did it end up?

Heres mine.... the other day i couldnt find my G19 after cleaning my shop so i looked for at least 2 or 3 hours for it... tore everything apart that would even come close to a place i would have put it.... well after all that time i still couldnt find it.... the next day i started looking again this time i started a very methodical search looking in any place the gun would even fit.... found it under my bench on my shelf i used to put reciepts.... when i cleaned my shop i put some reciepts on top of it and didnt see it when i was searching.....

Hunters ever lost a gun? My 642 fell out of my bag when hunting for my first time and when me and my buddy were walking through the woods showing him where i had hunted i saw it on the ground.... DIDNT EVEN KNOW IT WAS GONE.... that one wouldnt have turned out well if i hadnt spotted it....

I know some of you guys have some good stories so lets here them!

I flipped out one morning after waking up and my Kimber was not by my bed side. Became awake very quickly and then remembered I left it in my truck over night. Stupid, I know but I didn't want to get back out of bed. After that incident I get back out of bed now if my Kimber isn't there.

Just the standard yet tragic boating accident for me. All was lost.

Ive lost and found ammo, but closest I have come was last week when I got back from New Jersey. I had put my new S&W 64-8 in my dresser under a stack of cloths since there wasn't any more room in my safe (time to upgrade). Needless to say I aged about 2 years in 5 minutes, when I realized it wasn't in my safe. Took me a while to remember were I put it .

I was up late doing school work in my home office...a lot of times I will just be wearing shorts or whatever so I just lay my XDM on inside corner of the desk...Anways i was up late and then finally went to bed.

The next morning my gun was not in the nightstand where it should be, I ran into the office and it was no there...I went right to my wife and girls to see if they had seen/touched it....nothing...I tore my through the house trying to find it...At this point I running late for an appt, so I figured I would just grab the 642....I go to the safe and what do you know, the XD is sitting in the safe where it belongs when not on me

Apparently I had put it there before I ever started my school work!!!

Agreed, they will make even your subconscious actions more responsible.

Not me but a guy that was with me. We was riding around in a old Willys Jeep on a ranch that belonged to a friend of mine.

He was wearing a nice Ruger single six in a fancy low slung western holster. We had been out for a couple hours, driving around, climbing in and out of the jeep looking at things.

Suddenly he said he did not have his gun in the holster. Asked him when he last noticed he had it. He said when we started. We backtracked as best we could. Even went out the next day and looked as well. Never found the gun.
