[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 499346, member: 412"] Happens easier than a guy would think. Dog and I had been on a LONG walk for Ruffs in N MN. As I often do, I opened the action of my shotgun to clear it and set the rib into a tread-block of the ditch-side tire to keep it from falling over. I got the dog some water, got myself some water, took a couple pics, probably had a little snack. I put the water away, went to the driver's door and let the dog into he cab, climbed in and drove away. Next spot was about 15-20Min away. I got there and immediately went into full panic as I knew where the shotgun was. Luckily the spot is sort of a dead end and not a lot of traffic. I got back as fast as I could and the shotgun was lying right where it should be. I once shot a few rounds of Skeet just outside of Sioux Falls. Went into the clubhouse and had something it eat. When I finished I got in the car and drove back to the hotel. Went to grab the shotguns to take them into my hotel room, nothing but empty cases. Again, luckily, when I got back to the range, the 2 shotguns were right where I'd left them in the rack. I came very close to leaving a rifle behind in MT after loading a deer, opening and then closing a barbed-wire gate. I was backing out onto the road when I spotted my rifle leaning up against the fence. Yep, I'd be on the horn to the Sheriff. It's possible someone turned it in, or at least gave the Sheriff contact info and perhaps a description and Serial Number. [/QUOTE]
