What would you do... - 06/07/17 06:50 PM
Went hunting Friday night, drove back to the Mound late, got home around 1AM on Saturday. Short story, my helmet and monocular disappeared some time after getting back to my truck at the lease and the next morning. I am so pissed.
When I get back late like that, I typically bring my rifle/pistol/helmet inside and get the rest of my crap out the next day. It had to have disappeared either at a Whataburger stop in Graham or out the truck at my house during the night/early AM. It seems unlikely, as I would have locked at it at both stops, but can't prove it. I have no other scenario I believe to be likely. I could have left it on the bedcover by the rear door, but I have to believe I would have seen it after walking from the rear of the truck to get back in after closing/locking the ranch gate upon leaving. I better not see a hog running around with a helmet and monocular on...
I can't swear on stack of bibles it was stolen out of the truck, but I have no other answer. Nor can I state specifically where it was stolen (home or Whataburger).
Given the above, do I have any standing to file an insurance claim or do I just have to call it a lesson and give MD money for a new one?
