“Will the police return his guns? He’s likely to need them, what with the entire liberal establishment encouraging the hoodies to kill him, any chance they get.”
My understanding is that they still have his PF-9.
In most jurisdictions, if police take possession of your gun, for any reason at all, you have to initiate a legal action to have it returned. Very frequently it’s cheaper to buy a new one.
Agree with your point that it is cheaper to buy a new gun than to argue against the miscreants who operate the legal system.
