My wonderful soon to be x was packing her stuff tonight. In a heated argument she mentioned filing a restraining order against me. I have never done anything even remotely close to warrant it! Does she have to have some some sort of proof or something for it or can she just get one and screw me because she is a bi-ch. If she were to file for one what course of action do I have for keeping my guns, can I fight it?

Consult with an attorney… sooner than later, and suspend any direct communication with her.ExtremeX -
Hell, send me your name and I can probably get a TRO against you tomorrow. Then, you'll have to get rid of your firearms asap even before you appear before a judge and I tell him that you're the wrong guy. It really sucks that a TRO is that easy to get.NRA Certified Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun and Metallic Cartridge Reloading Instructor

Your wife has to fill out a page that justifies why she needs a TRO. A judge will read it and decide. There is nothing an attorney can do for you, until you are served and have to appear in court. Until then, she can go any day and fill out the paperwork, pay her fee and file it.Comment

Wow that sucks! Everything was going pretty smooth until tonight. I was hoping we weren't going to have to get attorneys involved. Guess I was wrong. Can I store all my firearms at a friends or do they need to be technically sold and transferred to a friend?Comment

I'm only smiling at you while you talk to me because it's hilarious that you really think I give a crap about you.
As I've gotten older I thought I was gaining patience, then I realized I simply don't give a crap.Comment

My Ex got a TRO. I had to transfer all my stuff to a friend, hire an attorney, challenge the TRO, won, and transferred all my stuff back.
BTW, I had to pay all the costs and couldn't get a dime back.
The TRO was dismissed without merit, since she had no proof because I didn't do anything..
It's bargaining leverage. Since you're male, you lose and pay and never get reimbursed.?The constitutional right to bear arms in public for self-defense is not a ?second-class right,? subject to an entirely different body of rules than the other Bill of Rights guarantees.? ?..

I hate to say it but kiss her behind, make up and give her what ever crap she wants if you value your guns/gun rights and wish to keep them. She can get a judge to sign off on a TRO with nothing but her word that you are threatening her. If she tells the judge you have guns, that judge is going to grant her the TRO, no ifs or buts about it.Comment

While I'm sure it's been done, the language on the TRO's I've seen does not allow for firearms to be transferred to a "friend". They have to be surrendered to the police or sold to a dealer.
Of course, there is nothing stopping you from transferring them before you are given notice of the TRO.

Sadly, this never seems too be the case.
Claims of abuse and terrorism always seem to show up during splits. The male in the relationship is usually guilty until proven innocent. In the court of public opinion, some guys never get cleared.
Every angry woman seems to think a TRO is to her advantage. Mybe the attorneys tell them to do this, not sure.
Get your own attorney right now and let him know exactly what has transpired. Hopefully, he can stop the damage before it happens.
I am sorry you are in this situation and I wish you the best of luck.
