Not sure where to post this, but if you or someone you know has happened upon a Mosin in the last 3 weeks, dated from today. Please PM if you think it important.
Long story short, the SO lent her Mosin to her Grand mother, me suggesting against this idea the whole time. Her Grand mother then proceeded to allow someone who was staying with her temporarily to use it to go hunting. Turns out this individual was a prohibited person, involving drug production. Now the gun is "missing," with claims of it being set against a tree, and he forgot where he was in the woods. We find out after the fact, he was going to acreage behind Oschner Medical Center (Again, one more moment where I'm looking at my SO with an "I told you this was a terrible idea." look.)
It's a numbers matching Mosin Nagant M91/30, Round receiver, very good bore. Livingston Sheriff has been contacted, report has been made. The officer noted that due to the circumstances, it had to be input as Missing, but he attached all the details with a likelihood of it being stolen. The Serial # was ran, and he said it hadn't been pawned. So I'm hoping someone just happened upon it. If you know a buddy that found a Mosin in the woods, please PM me.
