It is sad this lesson comes at a fellow gun owners expense but we should all have our firearms serial numbers recorded and kept in a safe place ,insurance companies will not cover any lost firearms without serial number information and usually will not cover more than a couple without a specific policy and at that they want a professional appraisal on everyone . I have documented every one of mine with photos and serial numbers even the serial numbers on the scopes .and keep them in a safe 12 men and 10 boys could not lift.
I am sorry for your loss my friend and will keep an eye out I do regularly look at most local internet sights that sell that kind of item.
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Having had 22 guns stolen in 3 different incidents (one a robbery), I know how unsettling that can be. I have now recovered 8 of those guns (one just last week after 9 years). One of the guns from the first (the robbery) was recovered in SC 10 years after the theft. If at all possible, make sure you have the serial numbers and descriptions entered in the national stolen firearms registry. If I had not done so I'm sure I would not currently have a 36% recovery rate.

They were burglaries (or just thefts). The difference is that a robbery is when the owner is actually present and a burglary is theft of a place where no one is present. In the robbery, I was attacked unloading groceries from my car, forced inside, and tied up with an extension cord while the thieves went through my home. The second incident was a theft from my garage (I'd somehow missed closing the big door one night), and the third was when my pickup truck was stolen (right outside where I work) and had some of my guns inside (not visible).I am just curious, if you had guns stolen 3 different times, but only one was a robbery, then what happend the other two times....?
