Just looking for some advice, being fairly new to Maryland I'm not too familiar with the laws. Any constructive comments are welcome.
My future wife suffers from depression and takes antidepressants. Most of the time she is ok, but a few days ago she had a particularly bad day and posted on facebook that she was going to kill herself. This resulted in the police looking for her, not being able to get a hold of her and breaking down our front door. When we got home they confiscated my 4 firearms and put her under a psych hold at a local hospital.
I'm dealing with the psych hold, but does anyone have any advice on getting my firearms returned to me. The AA police are suggesting it could be longer than a month to go through the process. All were legally purchased, two in Florida before I moved to MD and two locally. They included a Savage Arms .22 Rifle, Glock 23, Kimber Ultra Crimson Carry II, and a Colt Carbine I had just picked up the night before the "raid".
We were planning to go to Florida for the Holidays in a few weeks to get married, and the bachelor party was supposed to revolve around the gun range so this is a big disappointment. Any advice on how to expedite the process would be appreciated.
