BWIESE SAID: A lawyer negotiating the gun's surrender without charges is the way to go.
That has some 'contractual' backing - if the LE+DA pop the guy after this for illegal AW, no lawyer will ever trust the opposition for a plea deal, etc ever again and the system backs up.


Yeah and some poor bastard gonna be the test case for that, although i agree that domestic situations will have LE crawling all over your place. Truth is there are a lot of unregistered AWs out there held by citizens once the law changed they are commiting a crime otherwise law abiding

BTW: Do they surpluss out their Fido jackets?

Thanks for the clarification.

In theory (!) that surrendered gun should be destroyed by LE. (As an AK, it probably will. Info I've been getting is that when seized AWs slide out of a police dept. locker, it's the tacti-cool guns - good ARs, HK G36s, etc.)

Even if dude destroys that gun, that does not eliminate the past crime, it just stops its ongoing nature. [Admittedly, the threshold for prosecution would be raised significanly) but there could be witnesses, photos or other records helping show this so that's not necessarily a 100% closed matter.]
