Just knew I had a spare loading gate and gate screw for Marlin 1894 .44 Magnum but couldn't find it. Found it this evening. Only one being in the universe knows why I put those things in the box with my 4-5/8" .44 Spec FT.

4 years, at LEAST. I really like my 5½" .44 FT better. It is more accurate.

Then you buy a new one once you think it's lost which is when you find the old one. Then I end up with whatever the old one was, got a nice leatherman tool and several knives that way.
Granted you guys have way more gun parts than I do but I complied all gun related items into a couple boxes and put everything with like items. Holsters with holsters, grips with grips, etc... That being said I have 6 holsters for my g27 and no clue where 4 of them are, I'm thinking in one of dad's range bags.
I lost a Pistolet Makarov for 2 years that way and

had to consolidate everything because it was here there and everywhere. More than 19 quarts of knives, a big bin of holsters, a couple of parts (and, Williams Foolproof sights), loading "stuff" for the musket, Garand clips, and so forth. I don't think it ever ends. If I die before my wife it will take the gun shop guys a work week to sort through it all.

I lost the bolt to my Ruger 308 back in the 80's, found it 5 years later. Same for my 1917 Enfield, and I bought another one just before I found both bolts.
The good news, you can't lose what you didn't have.
