Question For Those Who Participated in the PROcede Taste Test

This event was held on December 7th and you know who you are if you were there.
It was held at MD Automotive in Westminster California.

The reason why I am starting this thread is because my friend and owner (Mark) of the shop is missing a screw gun that was used during all of the installs.
Mark has contacted Shiv but there was no reply, so we are assuming that he does not have the screw gun.
There is a possibility that the gun was left in one of the cars for some reason.

If anyone knows anything about the whereabouts of this gun, please contact myself or contact Mark at 714-891-1113.

Thank you.

Just talked to Mark. The gun costs about $200. If you guys can check under your hoods, we'd all appreciate it. It's small enough to go unnoticed. And yes Mr. 5, considering the fact that Mark and I searched the shop that night after the event, it's safe to say that I didn't take it.

That gun was awesome, made installs so much easier. I would guess it would be more likely to be misplaced in one of the later cars that day? Sorry can't help more.

Side note - Mark is a great guy, glad to meet him. Let's find his gun!

Hopefully nobody in here would do anything like steal a screw gun, especially from someone being as hospitable as Mark that day. Here's to hoping it was simply misplaced!!

Were all installations done in a garage or outside? Like a parking lot?

Thanks for the replys guys.
Hopefully somebody will find it stuck under their seat or something.
If it's still trapped in the engine compartment, I'd be surprised but stranger things have happened.

I'm sure he would really appreciate that but let's wait and see if anything pops up.

I was there early and used it , but I also brought my own. It was still there when I left at 1:30. That thing was sweet.... hope it pops up somewhere. I hate it when my stuff disappears.

We looked pretty much everywhere. In the front of the shop, in the parking lot, in the garage, near the dyno. Couldn't find it. Most likely left in a car somewhere by accident.

Damn dude, that means someone came up on a "gun." Please return it so we solve the problem.
