Unhappy Dad' s Luger registration

I've really come into a problem, my
> son had his guns confiscated by the local police department
> and with them were the weapons I had been giving him to store over the years. Yesterday, I went to the local PD and picked up
> those that I had engraved my driver license number on. I
> know I should not have but the Old chief of police was my
> neighbor back in 1968 and I didn't know better. This allowed
> me to get all the guns except the German Luger, my uncle
> brought back from Germany in 1946 and gave directly to my
> dad. At 16 I inherited the weapons. DOJ runs a check on the
> guns and finds that this luger that I have had in my
> possession for over 50 years was reported stolen by a "Luger
> Collector" in San Jose. Do to confidentially laws, the pd
> isn't giving me much help and I 'm led to believe the weapon
> was stolen in 1989. It was in my gun cabinet in 1989. The
> chief said that this collector had some work done in his
> home then but went on to say that the gentlemen
> > forgot that luger was part of the stolen property
> then. They are only helping me, very little, because this
> weapon also has my driver license number on the trigger
> guard. I asked DOJ if the could have entered the wrong
