Elderly father’s stolen Glock 42.

[rhettro]

Family member helped himself to my father’s Glock 42 from dresser drawer. Both parents very sick. Concerned grandson came to visit and helped himself to Glock 42 in drawer with laser. Question is, dad’s memory is ailing. Looking for paperwork for serial #. Unable to locate so far. He bought it new from cabelas. Would they have a database from a few years of the purchase with that info????

Sounds like a family whooping is in order… the old fashioned way

Do you still have the box? Serial number would be located on it.

familial predators are the worst!
Install a 4ch IP camera system and don't tell a soul where the nvr is mounted so you have eyes on them from now on

Family is the first ones to stab you in the back. There is no one in this world you can trust bud.

I would imagine a chain like Cabela's would have their records in order, but they probably won't give them to you. If your father presented himself with ID and the original receipt, they might give it to him, but if he's not in condition to get out and about and you're trying to run it down for him, I think you'll hit a roadblock. You'll likely have to file the police report, and the officer/detective assigned to the case will have to request it from them.

Sometimes the receipt will have the serial number . Not sure if Cabella's does this . Probably SOL .

The store has to keep the 4473 on file by law. Getting them to produce it would be another story unless you got law enforcement involved.

 

[dantheman]

Yet another reason to document your guns .

Try to locate the factory Glock box that it came in, it will have a sticker with serial number on it. Next step would be a police report and have them follow up with the original place of purchase a receipt would help greatly.

That’s an upsetting situation.

Found the box, got the receipt, and serial#. So now police. Thanks guys

BS, Enlighten turdhead that he's now in possession of a stolen firearm and
2, He crossed the state line with a stolen firearm.
3. Your about to report it as stolen so it can be put in the national database.
4, He can expect a visit from the local law and possibly ABC agency.
5, Tell them no whining and sniveling since
1. He stole the Glock to begin with
2. You can't be weak, You have no choice but to legally break it off in his diddy
