Yeah you sure can. Listen, if the cops and the DA truly believe that you did it, whether you did or not, they can make a case saying that. Not only that but a lot of people go shoot someone and then get rid of the gun and claim it was stolen. If you have a gun that turns up missing, you need to immediately report it to the cops, BEFORE someone uses it to commit a crime, and even then if it turns out that it was used in the commission of a crime down the road somewhere, you can bet your lucky stars they'll have a black and white or two in your driveway before you can bat an eye.
Trust me on this, I've been in the 'system', I know how it works, and I know plenty of other people who were there too. Never assume that because you didn't do it, or because there is no evidence, that they cannot lock you up for it anyway!!!

I just like the ideas total, and as a complete could no longer broaden crime, and most probably lessen it. The simplest disorders I have listed below are #6. there could be plentiful rate right here. Why no longer make it less difficult for individuals to begin taking pictures levels? Remember making it less difficult will broaden the quantity, and whilst there will get to be healthful festival, mainly rate is going down and exceptional is going up. Leave this to the individual sector as a substitute of the taxpayer, it is probably not "loose" to make use of, however will probably be extra to be had, most probably at a reduce total rate. #10. as a way to be a demand there could must be inspections, which no person could desire to have. Yes a secure is a pleasant inspiration however this boundaries freedom. I accept as true with the inspiration that I think you are getting at right here from studying the others, however in practicality a secure requirement could no longer simplest be a brand new law, to not point out but a separate small rapid entry secure could be critical for a helpful residence safeguard firearm. #eleven could be blatant discrimination as good as a nasty precedent, and most probably unconstitutional primarily banning anybody from a proper b/c they are a anguish within the ***. Sure's he is obnoxious, however except he is a crook or has or else tested himself a chance to others. I do not maintain him a lot both however gotta be reasonable right here.

That actually happened to me in 1985. Someone stole my .380. We had a record though, of all the serial numbers, makes and models of our weapons and everything else valuable in the house. This came in very handy when the gun was stolen and we had to make a police report.
We weren't liable for any crimes committed with that gun AFTER we reported it stolen. Which we did, the same day it was stolen, in fact. Never did see that gun again.

Not for "that crime." Like someone mentioned - criminal laws vary from state to state, but there is not a state in the union that will charge you for a crime committed with your stolen gun.

sounds like the story the drunk tells when the law finds his smashed up car the next day"Dang,it wasn't me,someone must have stolen my car last night.I was home alone all night,I swear!)
If a gun was used in a crime and traced back to you and the law is "interested"in you,more than likely you have come up on their radar before.Change your ways before some "Bubba" makes you his bit%&.

It depends on the circumstances. There are some ordinances which hold the gun owners liable for the proper safe storage of their weapons. There can also be, I am certain, civil liabilities.

No, not for the crime but you can if the gun was illegal for you to own.

If the cops know it was yours and can trace it to you, you might be implicated or questioned. Just make sure you report it stolen when you notice that it's missing to cover your butt.

Only if the gun is unregistered and then you can only be charges with having an unregistered weapon. Don't you watch "Law and Order"?
