Hello everyone,
A few weeks ago, I had my truck stolen and unfortunately, I had my sub-2000 tucked away under my seat. Definitely a bad idea in hindsight, as I thought that NO ONE would ever want to steal my PoS truck, but here we are.
Fortunately, as I found out from the officer handling my case, the thief only wanted to "borrow" my truck for a few days so that he could use it to schlep some stolen ATVs around. As a result, none of my personal property was missing from my truck, including my rifle.
It's been about 10 days since my truck and rifle were recovered, and the police officers/personnel that I have spoken to have been giving me pretty inconsistent information about how I can get my gun back.
My most recent call to their headquarters was with a lady from their "Evidence Management Unit" and she told me that there was only ONE guy in the entire building who processes recovered firearms, and that he just got back from vacation, so it would probably be "about two weeks" before I could expect a phone call back from them.
I have a hard time believing that the Baltimore County police department only has ONE guy processing recovered firearms. Is this the famous Maryland Disarmament-Through-Beaurocracy™ that I've heard people talk about in the past? Or does the BCPD hire from the same pool of people that get hired to work at the MVA?
Thanks for the answers/input in advance
