Does this mean there is a missing gun?

When he returned from his work around 7:30 that evening, Harper said Abrams was gone. She had left her cell phone, purse and Ford truck behind.


Harper said he assumed Abrams went for a hike. And, if she did go out walking, Harper said she would have been carrying a 22-caliber pistol.


“We had an incident out here where she killed five rattlers. So yeah, you carry a pistol when you hike out here,” he said.
