A police officer seized a firearm from an offender who was convicted of a felony. After the conviction, the offender sold the firearm to his adult son, who is under no disability to own a firearm. Is there any reason the firearm cannot be returned to the son? The firearm is not needed as evidence.

Any thoughts? Any traps or snares?

Many thanks!

We have allowed people disqualified from possessing a firearm to sell it to someone who is not with the understandings that possession by the person disqualified in the future will be problematic for the person who purchased the firearm.

Happens all the time in district courts. What basis would the town have for keeping it? The town can’t unless it’s not claimed or a forfeiture statute would apply.
