if this was solely about airsoft, could that be underaged kids who don't have access to gun sales and are desperate to have guns in their hands, for any possible reasons?

I'll keep my ears open if I hear/see any thing that links to this in ukee/tofino port Alberti and nanaimo. If I were you I'd contact rick or Tyler from CIA (centrial island airsoft), don't know their website off hand but send them photos cause they could show up to a game on the island or even on the mainland. Sorry to hear about this happening, getting anything you worked for stolen sucks, even girls.

Hey Ryan,. I was just thinking. have you spoken with your landlord yet? I assume they have insurance, maybe ask if you can pay their deductible and they help you out? I am not sure if they would go for it but it maybe worth a shot specially since you are just technically living in their basement and I assume they are going to filing a claim anyways for the damge to the door.etc/

Not saying this is the case here and I really hope you recover some of the gear you lost. I would seriously start hunting the pawn shops and online sales on a daily basis.

Anyhow, just a friendly reminder to be selective on what you post.
Hence why I have dogs, females weigh 150lbs+ and the males average 220lbs+

And if they get past the dogs, they still have to get past the padlocks, and locks on the cabinet.

Virtual dogs, steer away from the laptop and you'll be fine! lolz

In the first few months after you move into an apt is the most likely time you'll get jacked. Old tenants and old tenants friends are more familiar with your home than you are, and you just put most of your stuff on parade between the back of the truck the front door. Still sux, but now you've got more info to protect your sh8t.
Cheers

One question I had in mind, is there anything else stolen? Read couple of cases where people who were victim of random break in took the guns, thought it would be real steel and tried to sell it to gun dealer. See if it's about airsoft, then you best start to trace people in your area knows that you play airsoft. Makes it considered planned.
However, if it was a random break in, it could be the person thought its real steel. Since theres multiple AR-15 brands, the person could think it is an real steel AR-15.

Sad to hear these cases.

The land lady probably doesn't want the higher rates. and how can you have multiple thousands of dollars worth of gear and not spend a few hundred on insurance?

Honestly I don't know but I can't see how it would be illegal. Your living under her roof technically so it might be worth asking her. she might tell you to pound sand for the reason Lisa said but she may feel bad and look into it. I am not sure how much it would effect her premiums anyways I am sure she could tell you.

Not so much a rub in bud, just a friendly slap on the back of the head; Kinda like
Foreman from 70's Show with his "Dumb ass" comments :P.

Hard way to learn when insurance is a good idea, but its the way ya did take. Hopefully with a little friendly razzing you won't forget next time .

Also, not illegal for landlady to be away on vacation, although she SHOULD have a verified contact rep while she's away to deal with matters such as these. Probably a lawyer of some sort, but also not required if I recall correctly on the matter, then again I'd be going by Ontario rules.
