Hi, I recently purchased a gun from a man who appearantly didn't know it was stolen. He supposedly bought it from a pawn shop, advertised it online and sold it to ME (of course). I have about 500 in the gun. It was transferred through my FFL when he shipped it to me. He emails me and tells me a government agent will contact me in regards to recovery.
The italicized part is where you lost me.
It was shipped, then transferred through an FFL?
And when he called in the background check, it was cleared to transfer?
If stolen, I would think it would've been caught at that point in the process. If not, you and the gun were cleared through a background check. So, you should be in the clear, even if they do come get the gun.
Something though just isn't adding up... The seller contacted you that it was stolen? How does he know?
