Apparently, when my father went to put the scope on it he cleaned it first and then forgot to put the gun back together all the way

So was the bolt missing or the buffer spring? Cause I assume the barrel is still there cause you'd notice if the barrel is missing.

The bolt was gone. We used up alot of our .223 that time too, so I haven't even been able to shoot the AR other than like 2 mags a year ago

Well the weight of it without the bolt is hard to notice that it's missing. You could have checked it before packing it up with you. One racking of the charging handled and you can tell the bolt is missing or is it even possible to pull the handle back correctly without the bolt.?

My father packed it while I was at school, and I sort of just picked it up, put a mag in without thinking and then noticed it didn't even have the charging handle

Well the first thing you would notice is lack of a charging handle.

Yup. It's embarassing as hell, but it's the only fuckup I've ever had with a firearm
