Re: Lost Handgun...

Can I do this at a DPS office? The local SO has already pretty much said they will not even take down the info.

Lost Handgun...

I have not posted here in a long time, but i figured it was the best place for a good answer.

While fishing in the Trinity River, one of the kids fell out of the boat. She was wearing a life jacket AND knows how to swim, but here was yelling and screaming (mostly from momma), so I hopped in and helped her back into the boat. WELL, by the time everyone is back in the boat, my IWB holster is no longer IWB... :banghead:

Only about 10 - 12 feet of water, but probably 6 feet of silt on the bottom. After almost three hours diving in the gunk and dragging with a magnet, there was no joy. :cryin

Now down to the question: Do I need to report the lost firearm and how do I go about it. Maybe my search mojo is no good, but I could find nothing about this on the DPS web site. ATF website seems to address only lost/stolen weapons from FFL holders. I called the local Sheriff's office and they just sounded confused. :headscratch

Seem like having the S# logged somewhere as lost would be a smart thing to do.

Can anyone steer me down the correct path?

Thanks in advance
