I have a friend who registered his weapons as required, moved across town, the police showed up two days after the move and charged him with unsafe storage. (The law also requires that the authorities be notified in advance of an address change which is how they knew to show up.) He had installed a deadbolt on a closet at his old address to satisfy the safe-storage laws but had not had time to do so at the new address. Long story short, he was fined $500, baned from owning firearms for 5 years, weapons we confiscated, and he now has a criminal record.

Don't tell me these laws are for the "protection" of the citizens!

Just out of curiosity , What police force was he dealing with?

This story should be spread far and wide - just goes to show that anyone who believes the government lies and registers their guns will pay the price.
