I'm at a loss.....the only word I can think of is MORON! CCW is a fundamental right, but also serious responsibility. If you can't keep track of your own weapon, then perhaps you shouldn't carry?

Stuff happens. Things get lost. The FA10 form has a section for lost guns. Do you want to strip her of her right to carry because she lost her gun?

I just believe it is a serious responsibility. Taking it for anything less means you are the type that shouldn't be carrying. I'm not pushing laws here, but some people just shouldn't carry (know yourself).

The title should read woman lost her gun, not stolen gun. She left it behind and someone found it and will hopefully drop it off at the PD.

Only if a police officer losing his/her firearm under similar circumstances would face a similar loss of their right.

I agree that it was not stolen but lost and found by someone. But seeing this was in Alaska and there are no permits, anyone can carry, it would be tough to strip her of her right to carry.

I agree, being Alaska, it's no big deal and not likely to result in any legal repercussions.
She's lucky it wasn't Massachusetts.

I don't know if I would go so far as to call her a moron. Mistakes happen. It's part of life. Some mistakes just have more dire consequences than others. We learn from them then move on with our lives.

I expect that the Border Patrol has an opening for her.

Don't tell Gizmodo, they'll want to pony up $5K for it.

And this is why Underwhere provided us with those excellent diagrams of properly using the loo while carrying.

Hah. unfortunately it's not made by Apple so they'd probably only pay a few hundred.

that's just dumb. everyone knows you're supposed to hang it on the stall door by the trigger guard. that way you see it as you stand up and remember to stuff it back in your waistband.

Lets not jump to any conclusions here... There might have been a good reason... Like she was blackout drunk.
