This is from the town over from my hometown, in Fairfield County, Connecticut:

I'm wondering why he turned the guns in to the police for safekeeping but it doesn't matter - this man, trying to do something for his own good most likely, just got himself into a whole lot of trouble.

Court orders like that are common during a divorce involving stupid greedy crazy women.

I was ordered to do that a few years ago, cop later said one of the guns I turned in was stolen from Mason County 18 years beforehand (bought it from the Monroe show pre-WAC).
I told him BFD, it happens. No follow up, no charges, no night in jail with Bubba, just didn't get the gun back.

Cops called me a few months later and said I needed to come and pick up everything if I still wanted it.

Ya, if there is any question of the legality of this one or that one, those aren't the ones to turn in.

"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." – T.S. Eliot

"The right of self defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction." - St. George Tucker

A careful definition of words would destroy half the agenda of the political left and scrutinizing evidence would destroy the other half. - Thomas Sowell

"To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the lawless will allow...

For society does not control crime, ever, by forcing the law-abiding to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of criminals. Society controls crime by forcing the criminals to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of the law-abiding." - Jeff Snyder

Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the monarch of all he surveys. It realizes the ancient dream of the Jovian thunderbolt, and as such it is the embodiment of personal power. For this reason it exercises a curious influence over the minds of most men, and in its best examples it constitutes an object of affection unmatched by any other inanimate object.

Nice to see the well thought out logical comment and a couple supporters of it.

Seems like, if anything, he should be guilty of a clerical error.
