Friends,
I was broken into last night. Whomever did it was a slick & top notch crew. No prints left, and got into the vehicles cleanly with no damage to the vehicles.
They took my beloved Les Baer 1911, Premier II with 1.5" @ 50 yards accuracy guarantee: a pistol I have competed with in IPSC, IDPA & 3-gun for the last 12 years- it was my carry gun. A weapon that was an intimate piece as I had logged nearing 100,000 rounds through. They also got my N.American Arms 22 mag mini revolver that had been my carry gun since I was 15.
A (white water) co worker friend needed a place to stay last night. They had been looking for a large camper to live & travel in after the white water season is over. As unlucky as it seems- last night happened to be when they crashed at my place and $2000 cold cash was stolen out of their vehicle- the down payment for the camper.They literally stold the down payment on my co-workers home.
I have no faith the cash will ever be recovered and next to no faith I will get my weapons back despite the cop that did the report telling me he knows who did it.
The worst part is the times are not getting any better. Minnesota state gov is currently shut down= lack of funds. We know the state of the union. Fox news reported yesterday that banks are closing branches at a far greater rate than they are opening. Locally Green bank of east Tennessee went bust officially, but a large investor firm of NC bought it "merely to prevent panic." Our government has pulled the plug on NASA. The bible says... On & on. Things are bad going to worse.
Yet I'm the boy scout that so many people around me locally will look to when the SHTF comes in broad daylight rather than lurking in the shadows as it is now- and now I don;t own a single defensive handgun nor come close to having the financial means of even affording a highpoint, much less a solid reliable piece.
I ask all you praying folk to remember me & my co-worker; mostly my co-worker who lost 1/3 the needed money to purchase a camper, a home- a place to lay their head at night.
Please pray for me that my pistols are indeed recovered foremost or at least I can some how get re-armed.
Thank you for your prayers friends.
If anyone feels charitable and has won a good pistol at a match or perhaps got a, (for example) well worn police trade-in Glock they don't need or can part with at a charitable price I'm all ears.
But the prayer is what I'm seeking for sure.
Thanks. Your friend,
TresMon

It's easy to praise God on the mountain top. In this valley- to God be the glory right here, right now says the Tresmon. I love Jesus.
