I hope it is okay to repost this here, but I think it might be nice to the owner of the stolen rifle if we kept an eye open for his things.

That sucks. Hopefully it turns up and the sh!trat gets caught.

Hopefully the owners won't also get charged with careless storage as well. That rifle and and all that ammo in a cottage. Almost makes you think that it was all just left in a back closet or something. I hope I am wrong and it was all safely stored and the owner gets it all back without getting charged him/her self!

That is the way it usually goes when dealing with the RCMP, FORGET THE FACT THAT SOME DIRTBAG KICKED IN YOUR DOOR AND FINE THE GUNOWNER FOR "UNSAFE STORAGE".
 
I am hoping that from the description in the article, that the Enfield that was taken might be 'unique' and hopefully easy to spot for collectors here or just out right hard to sell because of what it is.
