So, due to some highly unusual and incredible circumstances, my gun collection fell into black hole of local PD for so called 'protection'.
(At this point of time I'm not willing to disclose more details due to possible (?) 4th Amendment violations by my local PD. Should I contact our Calguns attorneys? Not sure, because it's 'my word' against the word of 3 cops. Don't have any audio or video to prove my 'word'. The whole incident was not crime related, but officers were just 'investigating').
Enough to say, that misinformed or (hope not) ill disposed police officer taking my guns away tried to convince me, that I would be able to get them back ASAP from PD custody without filing LEGR forms with the CA DOJ.
Wish he was right!
Today, while filling out the large amount of copies of LEGR forms I discovered in horror, that one of my most priced antique guns was DROSed with incorrect serial number at the time i bought it over 4 years ago.
Here is my question:
Should I use correct serial number on the LEGR form, or use the same incorrect S/N which was entered on DROS? (I do have the copy of DROS and the receipts. However copy of PD 'Weapon Seizure Receipt' bears correct serial number).
Or should I provide both serial numbers and attach some explanation with the LEGR form?
In addition, one of the handguns did not belong to me. Do I understand correctly, that I can't claim it on LEGR, and the owner should do it himself?
For whatever reason he is reluctant to do it, but of course I'm willing to compensate him for the gun, which is also over 100 year old antigue in excellent condition. (No, I'm not a millionare, but just an honest guy. Paying for the gun would definitively create a financial hardship for me). However it would be a pity that a fine antique piece might end up in a scrap metal pile!
Please help with some advice what to write down on that LEGR form!
I'm traumatized! I feel like being raped and robbed. Strange feeling, especially that I've always kept LEOs in very high regard! I'm not a youngster, but almost retired 'stern member of the community'.
One more thing....my brains are virtually frozen and I'm unable to think clearly.
The LEGR fee for say (not actual quantities) 15 long guns and 15 handguns would be $62? Am I correct?
($20 for all long guns and first handgun, plus $42 for remaining 14 handguns).
The explanation on LEGR is somewhat confusing.
