What should you do if your gun was stolen?
File a report with the police. Be sure to provide make, model and serial number and any other identifying information on it. This is important for several reasons. First, there is a chance the thief will get caught. Your report will identify your gun as stolen property, and will help to put the thief where he belongs - in prison. Second, if a gun happens to be used in a crime and abandoned at the scene, having a report on file will keep you off the list of suspects. Third, there is a small chance your gun will be returned to you.

What are ''Unlawful Objects''?
The definition of unlawful objects depends on where you are, and what the laws are. If you don't have a concealed weapon license, then even standing out in a field in the middle of nowhere, a gun in your pocket would still be unlawful. However, even if you do have a license, having that same gun close to a school or an airport would be unlawful. Right now, a tube of toothpaste in your carry-on bag is an unlawful object at an airport. Hopefully, toothpaste is pretty benign other places. In general, an unlawful object is anything that there are laws against... and in many places, the law supports whatever the local rules are.
