Can someone in law enforcement etc? help me out? Please!

I'm not even sure if this is the right forum for this but it is really important.

I need to know if someone here can run a serial number on a pistol for me. I really don't want to say anything more than that at the moment but it is important that I find out information about this. Please PM if you can!

Thanks,

Anthony

I would think that a LEO won't be able to help you without getting into hot water...

Can't run the number because if it's in NCIC as stolen the world comes to an end for the guy who ran it...

I might sort of piggy back on this question.

My FIL has a few pistols that were left to him by his father. He doesn't know anything about the history of the pistols, but is concerned to transfer them to me to get some work done on them for fear that he does not know where his father got them. These are going back a good 40-60 years ago or longer.

Is there any way to run the pistols without fear of being nabbed for posessing stolen property or anything? I'm not saying I think the pistols in my FIL's possession are stolen, but not knowing the history that is one of the worst things I can think of.

That's is sort of where I was going with this as well. I just wanted to get info on a pistols history

adymond,
let me start that I am providing no legal advice and only an avenue for further research:
Isn't there some sort of legal protection to the heir of an estate in this situation? (under the assumption your in law's father has passed on)
Your in law may be able to report the firearms to the sheriff as inherited (along with a death certificate/estate forms etc) and then be 'covered' to have them checked out. Your in law would have to do it, I'd guess.... AGAIN- I do NOT know the actual law about this, just suggesting an avenue to research it further
