No way!
How tragic!
I'm so sorry for your loss....
I wonder if the Holiday Inn had video cameras running pointed at the parking lot.....

We will definately be watching for them, and I will notify my "little group" of shooting buddies too.
If any of it comes up on CL anywhere between San Francisco and San Diego, we will spot it in very short order.
I hope we can help to get your stuff back.
I have also requested to the Admins, that this thread be made a "Sticky" for a temporary time period.
-
I hope you get your rifles back
-
Oh man that made my stomach tighten just reading.
Hope the rifles find their way back home in short order!
The flex is going to be easy to spot.
Man.....nothing worse than a thief.
Sorry it happened to you.
-
Michael,
I have sent out an email to everyone in my group, as well as sent a PM up to Motorhead, and asked him to share it with all the Nor Cal guys.
-
sorry to hear that news, I know your distraught right now. there are not too many days that I don't for a second or two think about what if mine just walked away. very scary thought when you take into the account all the money, time, memories its just sickening. will look out but somebody should have seen something!!!
I will tell you this, there is not much lower than a thieve, I would Rather be robbed at gun point than to get clipped by a snake. I would still be mad as *(&^, but at least there are more options.
hold your head up, walk tall something positive will surely happen sooner than later
-
We're on it ...
Hang em ... HANG EM HIGH !!!
-
Sorry this happened. The feeling of your private property being violated is a sickening thing. Been there myself.
I hope they catch the pukes.
I have moved this thread to the Announcement Gate and set it as a sticky to try and help more see it.
Let us know if we can help.
-
Michael,
I just got a message from Johninthecamper.
He is up in Redding right now, and probably there for a couple more days.
If he can help in any way, let me know, send me your phone number, and I will get you in touch with him.
-
Sorry to hear you got robbed
I posted you info on another forum.
Hope you get your stuff back and they catch the person

You've prolly been checking Ebay already. I took a look, but I'm not familiar enough with those guns to spot yours.

-
Wow I'm so sorry to hear this,similar thing happened to me several years back,I saw nothing but red for about a month. Checking Craigslist every 5 min in the barter and trade section drive me crazy. That FLEX should be very easy to spot,if your lucky the scum just may be dumb enough to try selling it or pawning it. I'm almost positive that you may find some luck on Craigslist...Best place to sell stolen stuff,they hide it under barter and trade and usually won't post pics but will happily send pics. Best of luck :(
-
I probably can't be much help from where I am but I couldn't help posting to say how sorry I am to hear this. I hope karma is alive and well.
-
Oh man that not worthy, I hate thiefs >:(...I'll keep an eye out on ebay and CL and OfferUp...hope the guns turn up with so many eyes keeping a lookout and the scums ripped a new one.
-
Not sure it gets the most exposure in this gate now.....(judging by how many times it's been viewed since being moved).
I think it should be put back into the PCP gate (not as a sticky) for great visibility.
I never look at the announcement gate.....(only reason I'm here now is to follow this thread).
Look at motorheads new thread about his mutant, look at the view count it has in just a few hours.
Move it back for better exposure to members.
-
Man, I hope you get lucky and get 'em back! Two things I can't stand---thieves & liars. >:( One reason I'm not watching much TV these days! ;)
I'm with Motorhead, Hang 'Em.

-
if you have some pictures of them that would help to recognize them if we see anything familiar.
-
To Hades with the tweekers :o I'm down in Oroville, so I'll keep an eye on the pawn shops and gun stores here.
-
In the east bay next to Oakland. If they make it down here, I gotcha.
-
Sorry to hear this. Theaves are the lowest scum on the planet. We work and save and make payments, and some piece of trash rips us off when our back is turned... Good luck sir..cheers
-
I am in Oroville also. I will keep an eye out also. Can't stand thieves. Burn my @@@ when someone takes in a minute what you have worked hard for.
-
I had the same thing happen to me 30 years ago in Modesto Ca. stole my Walther and Krico silhouette rifles and my old Winchester 69 A ... to this day I'm still perturbed about it. Wish I could find the guys who did it and *&% them !

sorry to hear that, had my stuff taken in house burglary three years ago, still pisses me off when I think about it.

Great town of Modesto. Tweaker central? I work downtown and it's sad to see the number of folks wandering around out of their minds.
I'll keep an eye out on the Craigslist in my area.
-
There's a special place in H@ll for thieves...
Hope you find your babies.
Wonder if a post on Craigslist in the "Wanted" section looking for an air gun to buy would pay off?
Don't get too specific, just a listing you're looking to get into higher end airguns and list their common names.
-
I troll cl automatically for airguns, will let you know if anything shows up. What does is mostly garbage, so items like this would jump right out.
Lost a couple beloved firearms in a burglary years ago, and would still love to find that perp. Feeling your pain.
-
So sorry to hear this. Don't forget to check pawn shops. Pawn shops often provide quick cash for stolen items so the losers can get their meth or heroin.
-
So sorry, bro - let's hope spontaneous combustion IS possible and only this a-holes feet are found at the bottom of a pile of ash. Right next to 3 unopened gun cases and a tank. Will keep my eyes open, too. Wish you luck in getting you babies back.

Modesto and where I live now, Lancaster, Ca. moved here because my business is here and a lawsuit ...... that's another story .. I won the case but still had to sell my house to pay for attorneys. I got to tell ya, Lancaster is a pure dump, it is the home of section 8 housing and EBT stamps. Will be getting out in a couple of years at the most ... I'm off to anyplace but California ! I'm sick and tired of paying for everybody else.
I better stop or I'll get kicked of this forum ;- )

Thieves really get under my skin. I hope something is done and you get your rifles back.

Barter / Sell, had not thought of that. Thanks delivered flyers to pawn shops and faxed dive shops that fill air tanks!
-
Sorry to hear about your guns I doubt I'll get a crack at helping you recover them, but totally off topic can we do something about the sigs like robs that take up a full mobile phone screen just for a sig? It's inconvenient as *(&^ for the folks that surf on phones

Why I removed the 'catalog' of all my airguns. Even grouped by type (17 Benjamins, etc.)was too much for me to look at every time.

Why should I have to? I shouldn't have to lose everyone else's' sig because someone want to let everyone know how many species of birds per air rifle they shoot.
-
you might need a big screen TV for that.

John,
PBguns was simply trying to help with your original request .
No harm in that.
Let's please not hijack the thread. You are welcome to start another thread requesting technical assistance. There is also the option of using the Mobil friendly version.

Lets get back to bashing the scum bag low lifes who steal a mans pride and joy.
Dirty Cotton Rock Suckers they are.
-
Never had any guns stolen but did have my dirt bike stolen, terrible feeling. Hope you get your stuff back.
-
The worst feelings ever.
About 9 years ago at a range west of Davis, CA my pride and joy Thompson/Center Contender with ported 14" .223 barrel was stolen from my shooting bench while I went to the restroom.
When I came back I asked the RO about it and was told "It is not my job to watch your stuff".
Of course, no one else saw anything either.
Didn't take my rest.
Didn't take my shooting bag.
Didn't take my spotting scope.
Didn't take the case.
The RO just let the PERP walk off the range with un-cased gun.
Sure!
Certified RO my ars!
-
Poor range master. Karma has a way of getting even. That RO will get his as well as the thief.

2- guns stolen from my truck, 1 Ruger Super red hawk .454 Casull and a Beretta PX4 storm .40, they were in a locked case and stolen from the back seat of my truck, alarm was on and doors locked, truck parked in my carport, He used a spark plug to break the window, reached in and took the case, and then the house was robbed 3 times, I had put in surveillance video cameras and caught the crook on video, gave the video to the cops and haven't heard anything since no gun's no stolen items, apparently they recovered nothing, but all the break in's in the neighborhood stopped since then.

GEEZ !!!
Here in the backwoods of southern Alabama folks sorta take care of their own problems. We all know and respect that. Lots of places to hide things around here 8). Ya just don't go walking onto someone's property unannounced or uninvited. Ya just might not walk back out. Most of the authority types are local folks. They condone the law of the land. Rattlesnakes and wild hogs ain't the only thing to be cautious of.
-
Let's keep this on topic folks. Help keep an eye out for stolen guns-- craigslist, gunbroker, eBay, pawnshops. Any other suggestions?
-
This is an important thread for a fellow member.
I have deleted the political comments.
LEAVE THEM OUT OF POSTS ON GTA!!!!!
We need this and other posts to stay available. Don't cause them to be trashed with your political comments.
Last warning!!!!

Thanks!! I appreciate it. Wish my insurance company felt the same way. But no political comments!!

So sorry for your loss. I hope they find their way back to you right away....Are you saying insurance won't cover them?

That sort of story makes me think that the RO was in on the theft. If he didn't take it; then he was protecting the thief that did. The thief sells the rifle then splits the money later with the RO.

Hopefully your Homeowners Insurance will help with this loss/theft. In MI air guns are not limited for theft coverage as are fire arms.

So is it a State Law or is it your insurance company? And if it is your insurance company who are you insured with?
Thanks!
I have a $1,000 deduct and $2500 Cap!! That covers one rifle, now what?
-
I know this.
When my boys were at USC (University of Spoiled Children), their car was broken into.
Dowtown Los Angeles, go figure.
Anyway, their very expensive tennis equipment and golf clubs were taken.
My AAA Home Owners covered it.
-
I am insured w/AutoOwners. As far as I know most all companies do not consider "air guns" to be "firearms".
Very easy to check. Just call your Ins. Agent. If you don't have an agent then you will probably have to venture into the "1-800" land. You should have reported this theft to the police & received a report number. Ins. Co. will want a report #.
Good luck & let us know how it goes.

Just trying to pass on some info to any who may be interested what is necessary to report a claim.
Thanks for pointing out the fact that it was reported.

Things like this are why-
When I shop around at pawn shops I try to remember that-
It might ????
And try to ask about how long has this been here?
We all love a great deal, BUT.,.,.,
Sorry for your BAD luck, KARMA is real and will come around !
