Yea, it was really hard and still is learning that my paps gun is gone. Especially since he gave it to me about a year before he died. I don't have the S/N for my grandfathers gun but I do for the rest of em. The only thing is, I'm not really good with the whole book keeping thing so who knows where they are. I did file a police report and they did fingerprint,however, a friend of mines house was broken into approx 2 months ago (twice actually) and had guns stolen, got fingerprints from a window, and never heard anything about it again to date. So my faith in the justice system is little.
