Been a cop for 20+ years and a FFL dealer for 15 years. Bricktop is correct "again".....
And
1. You are not in trouble (unless you knew it was stolen and then purchased)
2. Small claims is best option
3. An officer may come by and pick it up or you may be asked to take it to the nearest police department. I would not ship it...let the police department do that for you. Do not keep it in your possession unless you have the police department check it to see if it has been listed as stolen. Either way I would use your Police Department as a resource.
Small claims works about 75+% of the time.
Just sayin.......
Hope this helps !!!!
