Had my springfield xd stolen while in college. I got it back about a year later, cops wouldn't give me any details on who they caught with it. It was a little weird at first and I thought about selling it but just kept it and got over the weirdness.

A note, though: my college roommate was a police officer so I asked him to run the serial number when I was thinking about selling it. Showed up as stolen, called CSPD and asked about it. They said sorry, they'll get it taken care of, 3 months later, same thing, repeat a couple more times. Finally, about 9-12 months after I got my gun back, it came up clean when my buddy checked it.

Congrats. Wonder of it will still have the blood on it when you get it.

Most likely it will.

Selling a gun with murder's...

Why the thumbs down? The gun didn't commit the murder, the person holding it did.

Didn't mean to do thumbs down... I fat fingered that one.

This thread has motivated me to do a proper inventory with serial numbers. It has been something I have needed to do.

---

I have a spreadsheet with all my guns listed, when and where purchased, serial numbers, year of manufacture, and status - i.e. in my safe, sold, given away, etc

I keep a copy on my laptop, my home computer, in my email, and on a usb drive on my keychain, in my gunsafe, and with my brother in law in his gun safe.

Cool, that means the NSA has them too.
