So frustrating missing a magazine

[Grimjaws]

I have a VP9 that I keep on the top shelf of my gun safe with 6 magazines all lined up nice and neat. Haven’t been out shooting in over a year due to Covid but finally get to go this week.

Opened the safe and only 5 in there today?????

I can’t remember the last time I took out the VP9 to oil. It’s my range gun as I prefer revolvers

I pulled apart the inside of the safe
Looked in the room it’s stored in
Looked in all rooms in the house
All dressers in the house
The garage
The range bag
In my two favorite chairs
All my coats
Nothing

It did not leave this house so it has to be somewhere

So frustrating as I have no idea where it went

That’s why I like revolvers - you put them in the safe and the cylinder is still there when you take them back out

Time to get a 929 and be done with semi automatics

Haven't experienced that with gun parts, etc., but certainly with a lot of other things!

Hope it turns up for you soon.

Look in the gun.

Look in the gun.

Yup. Made that mistake before.

Look in the gun.

My thoughts also. I may have done that one time.....

 

[DukeSoprano]

the other range bag, you know the one you use to use

Look in whatever box you keep leather goods in and check the magazine carriers.

Be glad its only a mag.

I misplaced an entire gun.

Went shooting/fishing for a weekend with a buddy. Six months later I have a raccoon up a tree in my yard, and look for my 22A with a red dot. No where to be found. Finally just grab my duck gun and a load of 4s and kill the raccoon.

Go back inside and tear the place apart looking for my 22A.

Call up buddy and ask by any chance he has it. He digs around and sure enough there it is in a hard case mixed in with his tackle boxes.

First, it sucks to lose a mag...any mag. I hope you find it soon.

But why only 6 mags? A pistol like the VP9 deserves more. I keep 12 15-round mags and 4 20-round mags in my range bag. Methinks you need to invest in more boolit feeders.

Yep, this happens to me from time to time. Never guns, but the last one was my Benchmade CLA.
Had back surgery in mid February and another in early March. Somewhere in between the first and second surgery in the fog of pain meds the CLA disappeared. I remember very clearly the last time I used it. For the life of me I cannot remember what I did with it after tha. I was not carrying it because I rarely left the house and I was stuck wearing sweats for about 2 months.
So soon as I was able to drive I did what you always do when you want to find a lost item. Replace it. That was two weeks ago and still no sign of the old CLA.
Hope you have better luck with the mag

I've had the opposite problem. I run across a loose magazine somewhere and have no idea what it fits or even if I still own that gun.

Close, but no cigar. Gotta be parallel universe. Happens constantly here. My neighbor has 2 cars: green, white, and red. (No, he's not Italian.) He's tolerant of me, but I'm not wrong on the colors of his SUVs from day to day. Aggravating, I know, given the $ of magazines now.

Sorry you lost a mag. hopefully it is found soon. I am sure if someone were to search my apartment they would find random pistol and rifle magazines in various places. I try to keep them in either the range bag, or an old suitcase repurposed as magazine and part storage. Invariably i will buy more magazines, go to the range, etc. and eventually misplace one or two.

VP9 mags ain't cheap either.
