      How'd they confiscate it? Some kind of warrant or did they just tell you to hand it over? Just curious.

          How did they prove that it was indeed stolen property? Are there s/n on bares and slides ? Any unique markers .

            H&K pistols have serial numbers on the frame, slide, and barrel.

            In addition, US Gov contracted H&K firearms have RFID embedded into the receiver/frame.


            European firearm laws requires slide & barrel to be serial numbered, because those are controlled parts in the EU.
            USA firearm laws required frame/receiver to be serial numbered, because those are the controlled parts in the USA.

              not hard to find you . Federal agent can request info from Ebay, and ebay complies it.

                Well that sucks but it sounds like you handled it well. At least you got your money back.

                Next time just for giggles try the, "am I being detained?" Let us know how that works out for you.

                    Oh that barrel and slide? Sold that out at BLM land while shooting a couple weeks ago. Guy offered me $50 over what I paid and I handed over. Good day sir!

                    Joking aside.. sounds like you handled it well!

                        ATF uses HK .22lr's?

                            I would have claimed I was a sovereign citizen.
