Maybe they only care to hold them under the “conspiracy law” until all the confiscated weapons have been analyzed to see if they can be linked to crimes not necessarily associated with the Twin Peaks event.

And determine which guns had been fired that day, who owned which guns, etc. I expect nobody will claim ownership of most of the weapons, so they have a very tough job, to tie it down.
I see the bikers are being in three categories; 1. Hardcore criminal gang members, 2. non-violent motorcycle enthusiasts, and 3. An in between group. Maybe somebody who is riding with criminals, for the rebellious thrill, no record yet.
Sorting all of that out takes time, especially since 1. and 3. may be lying for their own sakes.
The hardcore guys benefit from the difficulty of sorting it out, and benefit from having people in their association, with no records yet.
