Marcraft, I'm sending you a pm. respond to it.
A trail cam sounds like a good idea. Haha... A few days ago, some people stole my running shoes (no big deal because I had another pair stashed in another locker), from my PE locker because it doesn't always lock that well, and I thought of putting a trail cam in my locker to see if they would come back. The next day I found my shoes back in my locker for some reason. But I think it sounds like a good idea. Go for it :]
My place in the woods was broken in to a few years ago. Didnt take a whole lot, just a few odds and ends, tools, some pistol bullets and an old 22 rifle.................
Of course the police were called, but no fingerprints, and no serial numbers on the rifle.(made before they were required)
Ok.............My place is in the woods alibet on 10 acres with other house scattered around.............I was able to track the thief home............(never mess with an experienced deer hunter)
I wont go into the details but I have had my revenge on the thief..............
Good for you!!!!:D:D What? No pictures:eek::DQuote:

Wait a minute A190...you said you "wouldn't go into the details"...;)Quote:

That's pretty crappy...of course it's better to find out now than to show up in the middle of a SHTF situation and find out then...

The cabin, therefor, will simply be an empty cabin. Unless it's a nice cabin and not a 'deercamp cabin', I think that'll do ya.Quote:

I have a new river cabin being built right now in Bella Coola BC Canada. I just bought the land & because my wife & daughter have no interest in it, I'd like to find others to join me. It's river accessed only & my guys there, 3K miles from where I live, said locking it up would be a waste of time. As I said, you can't get to it except by boat, but that probably wouldn't stome anyone wanting to still general camp stuff. I also take my guns back home when I leave. MikeQuote:

Only by boat.
Trax has got it right! Sorry to hear about your loss. I know how you feel!! My wife's jeep got broke into sometime back. They stole one of my handguns in the robbery and what caught them on the burglary is a couple of them tried to use the weapon in an armed robbery of a convinence store. They broke under questioning and told the police who else was involved in the string (50) of vehicle burglaries. At first the local DA wasn't going to procecute them because they are all under 18. BUT after some good advise here, and some threats, blackmail and pressure from me and most of the other victims after I called...:innocent:Er... I mean SOMEONE called the other people and told them the cops caught the punks and the DA wasn't going to do anything because of their age. Well let's just say...... I hope they catch the scumbags who robbed you. IF they do keep on the cops and make sure they do their job!!!Quote:
