Stolen gun was a rather old 1911 I think her Dad had for a long time. I did suggest to ask her Dad to see if it had ever been in an FFL's shop for repair, that there would probably be some serial number paperwork on it somewhere there.

Lady student, mid 20s, from a CHL class a couple of years ago called last Friday, needing to find procedure for replacement CHL. She works at a motorcycle shop. Accountant. Got her own crotch rocket. Had driven her extended cab pickup to Stroker's (biker bar on Harry Hines in Dallas) last Thursday evening after work and met some friends. Burglar hit thru truck window between 7 and 9 p.m. Her normal carry gun was in shop for trigger work. Had Dad's (borrowed) .45 in console. Lost it - and neither she nor Dad had ever written down the serial number. The scumbag also took her purse which she had tucked out of sight under back seat ... Moral of story: Record those serial numbers to have at least a chance of recovery one of these days if guns are stolen.
