    Going to be an interesting conversation with Police when owner goes to claim it. How does someone forget a rifle?

    Left on roof of car or on top of trailer and forgotten about?

    In te same way you forget to put up the outboard at the ramp before pulling boat out.

    But there is a audible warning usually when that happens as you can hear the $$ being ground off the skeg.

    Usually happened to me when "helpful" people interrupt your "post fishing" routine asking questions or trying to do stuff when they are not familiar with boats

    Few yrs back, I had spent several hrs bumbling about across rough country with 2 large red hinds in my pack, was so done when I got to the truck, I parked my rifle on the truck wheel and promptly forgot the thing, drove off. Got lucky, remembered later and went back and found it, had it been the next day it would have been some random picking it up and going "how do you lose your rifle"?
