Mom Finds AR-15 in Back of Rental Car

[ALS]

A New York mom and daughter on vacation in Florida found an unwelcome surprise in the back of their rental SUV earlier this month. Inside a bag was an AR-15, which was later revealed to have been left there by the wife of a NFL quarterback.

According to The Sun-Sentinel, Judith Fleissig said she and her daughter had driven the E-Z Rent-A-Car’s Nissan Rogue around for a couple days before noticing the bag in the back.

“She unzipped it and saw a gun and we were like, ‘Oh my God! A gun,’”

Why doesn't this happen to me?

Joking aside, would it be kosher to keep the rifle if this happened in PA?

Why didn't I never find an AR in my rental? It's usually used condoms or chewed gum.

I'd say it's a decent thing to do - trying to locate an owner of $1000+ worth item, regardless of what this is. But I agree, it looks very tempting and almost as hot as the chick who left it there

No, it would be Theft.

It's OK, Honey.

What is behind the Eotech? Is that a magnifier or NV? I don't understand why people put the mag behind the dot, always figured it would just make the dot bigger.
