Quote History Quoted:
It was "operator error / poor judgement" ...no doubt.
I saw him yesterday and he said he got to the home where he was staying @ 1 AM...and had set his alarm to get up to go to the range at 5 AM....it wasn't a truck, it was a vehicle with a trunk, and the gear was in the trunk. He mistakenly assumed he'd be good for 4 hours. He chose poorly.

Not to sound like a douche OP, but why didn't he bring his rifle and his gear inside with him?
PS: I'll keep an eye out for his rifle and optic.
I have no idea. I wasn't there. I can't speak to the actions of another.
When you speak to him ask him and post his response here.
That way others don't make the same mistake.
TIA

Thanks for the update, H_S.
That's a lesson hard-learned.
I've been telling my students and friends for years not to leave anything of value (especially firearms) in their vehicle. Heck, cops do it all the time and have their radios, guns, and badges (along with other gear) stolen. I could never wrap my head around that one.
I won't eat at a restaurant when I have firearms in my vehicle unless I can sit near a window.
Anyway, I hope your buddy gets his property. I'll still keep an eye out.
BTW: If you update your OP with a serial number that would help.
