Very old story, but I have nothing else to do and you may or may not find it interesting. Feb 1985: I brought in from a dist. and transferred to a "Friend" a Ruger Security 6 blue .357 revolver S/N 161-531XX. Sept 1999: Friend had an issue with his wife and she went to the PD for a RO. The cops came to the house and relieved him of his 16 guns, one rifle, one shotgun and the rest handguns from .22LR to .44 Mag. and left a signed, dated receipt. When he got home, they kissed and made up and went to the PD to cancel the RO. The cops were good about it and told Friend that he could have his guns back if he just showed them his LTC. Friend had let his LTC expire, so no guns for him and off they went to Peter's BWH. I know of the alternatives, he did not, and I found out about this later. Jan 2000. Friend called me for help and wanted to stop paying the BWH for the storage. We went to the BWH where friend settled up the $$ and they transferred all the guns to me. When I logged the guns in, I was short the above Ruger. Called friend who just wanted to forget about the guns while he worked on "other problems". So here I sat with the guns. Jun 2000: I get a trace request on the Ruger which supposedly was used in a crime. Fess up. who has/had it? Jack
