Recent California Horror story..True!

JR, I infer from your post that this individual is in the military (report for duty) is this correct? If so if he can get the military to state that he was 'on duty' for the purpose of responding to official orders to relocate, he just might have a chance of getting the firearms back. The KA firearms codes state essentially that the carrying or transportation of firearms within or thru the state by members of the military 'while on duty' are exempt from most of the regulations. Might be a long shot but worth a try. I recommend that he immediately contact the State Attorney General's office in Sacramento and file a complaint along with all the pertinent info. If he is in the military he will also have the use of free legal advise. Nearly all of the KA code pertains to transportation of firearms capable of being concealed on the person, in this case they must be locked in a container. The weapons you mentioned do not fit that category. You (he) can get a federal publication which has all of the different state published firearms ordinances, its ATF P 5300.5 available from the BATF at ATF Distribution Center, P.O. Box 5950, Springfield, VA 22150-5950, phone 703-455-7801. My gut feeling is that they are gone already, went home with the 'capturing' police officer, and probably not even officially reported.
