I think keeping it would be wrong, but it sure would be fun to mail it in - one piece at a time over the course of a year...

Versus, say, what the CLEO of my town would do to me if I left my M4gery lying around on the street somewhere.
WOOT! Free AR!
I'd totally keep the upper.
It happens....sort of.
I know a Detective who left a set of handcuffs at a house we did a drug raid on. He had his name on the cuffs.
He was getting pictures every week for about a year with his handcuffs posed somewhere different. They were eventually mailed back to him.
How come I never find anything cool while I'm jogging?
one time, at band camp (Kosovo), we spent an entire night looking for an M4 after one of the forward observers placed his rifle on the roof (yeah, the roof like mickey d's soda) of his up-Armor got in and drove away. we made it all the way back to camp & he didn't even realize it until we hit the clearing barrel.
*******It's not limited to just cops. When I was deployed to Iraq there would be notices sent out at least once a month to the effect of "someone left an M16A4 in DFAC 3 chow hall, SN#********. Report with your first sergeant to base PMO to claim the weapon." Seriously, at the MINIMUM, once a month someone on base would leave a weapon at a bus stop, on a bus, in the chow hall, in the MWR, in the gym, etc. The reason, as far as I can figure, is because the gun isn't even viewed as a tool anymore. It's like your cellphone, just something that you always have on you. You become completely complacent and can easily forget about it if you set it down somewhere.
This is why only people in the military and law enforcement should have weapons like this. Oh wait.
. . . Maybe they all need their guns attached to themselves by zip cords so they don't lose them.
Not my point. If this was a priviate citizen who did this, they'd be screaming about how private arms can fall into the wrong hands. Let's see if they will (and perhaps prod them to?) make the same argument about arms in the hands of the government.
This guy's been to my house.Imagine a loaded assault rifle found just feet away from their front door.

Let's how many stories the readers can conjure up with this statement...
There are lot's of instances where officers leave items behind at search warrants/crime scenes. It is very rarely a firearm. When it does happened it is generally a long gun but it is very rare.
