This morning, 5 Jan 2014, between 4 and 8 A.M., a truck was broken into on Pittsburgh's North Side area, and several firearms and a Class III device were stolen. There is a 500 dollar reward for information leading to the arrest of the thief or thieves. Here is a list, including serial numbers, of the items stolen. If you have information, first and foremost contact the Pittsburgh Police immediately, and also call 724-433-3199.

BOLO-Be on the lookout for:

• Silencer (suppressor) Sparrow SS, s/n SS-4299
• Glock 21, s/n HWU771
• S&W M&P 22 PISTOL, s/n MP008021
• S&W SHIELD 9 mm PISTOL, s/n HBD6791
• Para Ordnance 1911, s/n GI08401

The owner of the handguns and suppressor has already received a lecture from his co-workers, friends, and fellow gun owners, so let's concentrate on finding these items and putting the bad guys in jail. On a purely political note, this robbery was reported just after 8 A.M., although the owner was under no obligation to do so. Responsible gun owners do NOT need a law to get them to do the right thing. This owner exercised PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.
