Hello Tennessee HTF!

I am posting this in your HTF because you are a neighboring state, and figured it couldn't hurt. I know its a helluva long shot; the chances of it making it to TN are probably low to nil, but I'd hate to think that maybe there was something I could have done and didn't do.

This week, my apartment in Atlanta was broken into while my roommate and I were out. They got a bunch of stuff, but in particular they managed to lay their dirty paws on my AR15.

I gave the police the serial # for the rifle, but I'm afraid that, realistically speaking, the chances of getting it back are, well, it just makes me sick thinking about it. That was my one and only, and now some savage has it in their grubby paws.

I don't have any pictures I can post, and while I will try to check back here often, it will be difficult since I have no computer of my own now.

It is an Olympic Arms 20" flattop, MOD MFR, S/N JF 4302
- Standard A2 stock
- Detachable carry handle with Tapco carry handle mounted rail
- Redhead Ascent red dot scope (1x40mm)
- FIRSH quad rail (free floating)
- Kinght's Armament Co. Forward grip
- There is a cleaning kit in the buttstock

I really am not sure what all else there is for me to do except pray that I get lucky and it turns up somewhere; one can hope, right?

If anyone has any suggestions of more steps I can take to improve my chances even the slightest little bit, I would GREATLY appreciate it.

As I said, I don't know what else to do, I feel sick. Thank you all for taking the time to read. Feel free to reply or PM with ideas.

Call ATF & give them the S/N as well as tell them it's stolen. That way if it pops up on a FFL transaction, the NICS check might pick up on it.

I hate gun thieves!

That is definitely one of the better ideas I have heard yet. I will definitely be doing that ASAP. Thank you!
