What I was told is the cops do not want to release info but if you know where it is, and it comes up stolen, they will seize it. :dunno:

Now days more often that not, certain departments don't do jack. Unless there is some type of revenue involved.

Buddy of mine had a awesome deal on a Kimber 45. Called the county sheriffs dept to verify it wasn't stolen "that good of deal". They didn't even blink on the info came back clean and my buddy was happy happy.
Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

Well I bit the bullet and got it for $550 with the ammo and his old school holster from the war.... Bill of sale and all the jazz.... Has a second clip too that he found for me... Great guy... It's a straight shooter to boot.... Spent 3 hours shooting the *censored* with him along with two clips.... One last hoorah for him.... Probably won't leave the house much.... Kinda more of an airloom imo because of what happened with it.... He has at least 7 confirmed kills with it and some possibles along with definite hits that surely resulted in death.... Fire fights in heavy cover close range..... It's was his baby and life support.... I promised him I'd take care of it and try to respect it as much as he did and it won't leave me til passed down to my son with it's history to go with it..... Kinda a tear jerker....


Now the agreement with my wife that she informed me of after getting home was I now can't go bear hunting for another week or make that $550 back....   :chuckle:   A little pissed.... Had a bear hunt set for this evening with her Uncle and a buddy...... Figures....  :chuckle:  Just posted a bunch of crap on CL so should only take a day or two after I scrap this car in the am I'll be halfway there!!!!

Sounds like a great deal on something that has major history. You ever want to get rid of it let me know.
