    I'm sure someone else will know more than me on the subject, but the first three words that come to my mind are as follows:

    1: lawyer
    2: Lawyer
    3: LAWYER

    Getting your guns back is clearly not just a matter of pointing out a misdialed phone number and the cops saying "OH, our bad, here ya go."
    "Freedom is our most precious commodity and if we are not eternally vigilant, government will take it all away. Individual freedom demands individual responsibility."

    Call the State Police. Your firearms were stolen, period.
    The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but believe me, it's on the damned list.

    This. Seriously.

    "X is what percentage of Y?" Divide the first number by the second, multiply the answer by 100. Add a percent sign. Think.

    Ok, if no one else is asking the obvious question, then I will. How the heck did the police find out that you have guns?

    And good luck with your fight.
    Je suis déplorable
