When my house war burglarized the detectives told me most of the time the perp is family or friend. I don't wish that on you and I hope he gets his stuff back.

To state the obvious make the rounds of pawn shops and browse craigslist.

'Killeen' is all you need to say, the crime in that town is legendary. Good luck!

Possibly some one his friend knows. He just got back from Korea, and just got posted to FT Hood.
He should have left the rifle with family while he got settled. I think he was just too excited to be back state side and couldn't wait to shoot it. It was his project while over there. He'd mail me parts so I could build it, and have it waiting for him when he got back.

Indeed. The Thief is probably too stupid/uninformed to realize that the rifle is in 6.5 Grendal. An ill begotten range trip is likely to have explosive consequences. 5.56 in a 6.5 G AR. May it mark IT as thief!
