You think that's rediculous...

In Australia, gold medal winning olympic shooter (1996,2000) Michael Diamond had his shotgun confiscated from him when his girlfriend decided to punish him for an argument they had and got a restraining order. This was 3 months before the olympics. He got his gun back a week or so before the olympics but didn't even make the final.

In court it was determined his gf was making it all up. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
 
That doesnt affect guns, only a DV restraining order does...

Hold your horses, Mate. Once again, it depends on the state. In my state, a restraining order requires confiscation of firearms.
 
there might be a market for a gun safe rental that places your firearms in the custody of a temporary guardian for the duration of the restraining order.

I know of two dealers who do this. One, located in Northboro (stone's throw from our state gun owner's league HQ) does this quite often.
 
Read the article with this knowledge.

Fox Butterfield, the "journalist" listed in the byline, is a notorious anti-gun hack.

If you've got access to Lexis-Nexis, search for "guns" an "Fox Butterfield."

He's the reason the antis latched on to the term "pocket rocket" for CCW pieces.

In exactly two words: Bank Boxes

Great idea, but how will you keep her lawyer's grubby little fingers out of your bank box, not to mention the authorities? I'm with you, this looks promising for my situation.

There's a very easy way to establish an effectively anonymous bank box, with respect to hiding one's assets:

1. Find an attorney who specializes in business/corporate law, and ask him or her to assist you in creating a Nominee Corporation . This endeavor should not cost more than several hundred dollars, and your new Corporation will be "good until cancelled" (to borrow a phrase from the investment world.)
2. After your Corporation is established as a legal entity, open a Safe Deposit box -- using only the Corp's data when completing the bank's paperwork.
3. Pay for the box rental fee on an annual basis, in advance, using cash.
4. Use the box to store that which you deem inviolate.


The point here is that if a search of your assets is ever executed, the existence of the Nominee Corporation's bank box will most likely never be discovered....because only you and your attorney are aware of any connection between yourself and the Nom. Corp.


The aforementioned information is condensed, but it effectively encapsulates the entire process here. Naturally, use your best judgement here. IANAL.
 
A friend of my wife's told me once that his brother was going thru a messy divorce. The wife told whoever that her husband's brother had guns and she was afraid he'd give her husband one and she'd get shot. The cops were at his house collecting EVERYTHING, even his bow and arrows. He eventually got everything back, but the cop told him "We're taking them, no argument, you'll have to go to court to get them back".

This was in NJ. Personally, I'd have sued my soon-to-be-ex sister-in-law for court fees, but my brother would probably end up paying them.
