    wise choice... filing a false report would be a very bad move. The firearm was not stolen. Just write the firearm off and I bet in a few months you will see it again.

    A friend of mine was accused of stealing $300,000 in gold, watches and jewelry. This was at a storage place that also rents safety deposit boxes.

    The evidence against him was a video of him at his safe deposit box that is next to the one broken into, but you cant tell what box he is at. He also lives a high-end life style without a paper trail to where his excess money comes from... he buys and sell junk from garage sales and antique shops.

    The owner of the box that was broken into had / has no proof of the contents of his box other than he is a multi-millionaire, "Why would I lie". This his proof of the $300,000 theft.

    The PD seized all the computers in my buddies home, all his phones, they froze all of his bank accounts and seized all of his firearms. That was 3 years ago. No charges have ever been filed and his lawyer says there is nothing he can do...its an on-going investigation.

    How did this turn out?

    The moral of this thread is... we should all open carry Hi Points, and consider them disposable.
    In Marion County for sure I only carry a dependable, relatively modest value pistol, knowing if I have to use it for lawful self defense and even after I'm cleared, it won't be promptly returned to me as is the proper and honest thing to do.
