It seems to me this article leaves a lot 'unsaid' about what transpired between those two events.

OK? OK? Is that how we abbreviate "warrant signed by a judge magistrate" these days? And that's just for the search.
Good point, too, about ownership. If the guy said, "they're mine", doesn't the conversation stop there? Or does "someone" call the FBI for a NIC check to verify ownership? Or just confiscate the weapons arbitrarily without redress?
The weapons in question were long guns not subject to CHL laws (which are quite possibly irrelevant here if the guy was involved in interstate travel or, in Texas, in travel between distant counties, making him a "traveler").
Thin beef, sounds like to me. "Oh, I'm sorry, you own too many guns" -- i.e. more than none.
