D.C.’s ‘red flag’ gun seizures are low. Officials hope to change that.

Wow, Maryland Public official just proved what has been said all along. Red Flag laws are intended to be abused by gov't against perceived enemies.
This could be the case that gets all Red Flag laws voided, appropriately, as unconstitutional.

I didn't see one handgun in the above picture
How often are rifles used in robberies? Talk about printing...

Rifles, SBR’s, AR Pistols have sadly become very common

64 Firearms... Impressive list.

This is for one week! Unreal...

Thanks for the insight.

Auto sears too. I bet they are recovering 3 a week.

I’ve asked a few of my buddies if they are test firing full auto or just Wish app junk but since the officer doesn’t actually go in person to test fire anymore they didn’t know.

Side note. About 13 years ago I heard full auto during new years. It was a 3 round burst and I thought to myself “holy hell, that’s crazy”. Now it’s kinda common to hear it on the gunshot detection system.

Yikes.

Is the gunshot detection system helping significantly?

The auto sears for Glocks, or are they putting them in the ARs?

Now try to understand that logic

It's pretty simple on the face of it .

Already illegally possessed guns can already be siezed as contraband , without needing to establish extreme risk , or paperwork thereof .

51 seems low as a raw number regarding overall population . But as a percentage if the small number of legal gun owner DC residents , it would be at least as high a rate as suburban jurisdictions .

I actually don’t know. It was here when I got here a long time ago so I’ve never known it not here. Wouldn’t be able to take a guess. I’ve personally gotten recoveries based on its pin point

I wonder what the total # is as the release notes "This is not a comprehensive list of all guns recovered in the District of Columbia.

Pretty sure there aren't going to be 64 or 34 or 14 new inmates anytime soon.

The sad thing is if you ever look up some of the names they include, it is amazing how many of them have previous weapons charges and/or other felonies.

So, they haven't had enough "red flag gun seizures..."
What are the stats for gun crimes committed where they found the assailant to be mentally deficient?

That's a good point. It's still not bad enough for people to vote for something different.

If each crime victim/family in DC never voted Democrat again, it would eventually change for the better. But they won't do that.... So it doesn't.
