The 1968 GCA made it illegal millions of ex-cons to own guns even if their crimes were committed before the law was enacted. This law will stand but it may be challenged if due process is delayed or denied.

I would think it fair if a person’s lawfully owned firearms are seized that they must be given a hearing within 10 days at which time the state must prove they are a danger. If they cannot, the firearms must be returned immediately. If the state proves their case, then the accused will be given a period of time to attend anger management or see a doctor or maybe just cool off. After that period of time, the state must again testify as to why the defendant should not be allowed to have them. Again, if they cannot, the firearms must be returned immediately.

Plus not looking like they had been thrown from the back of a truck onto a rough concrete floor and subsequently tossed into a storage locker. Private and lawfully-owned possessions have value.
