Prohibited after purchase? Unsecured how? Abiding by NR storage laws? As the prohib could be legally stored?

From the picture it certainly appears the prohibs are all previously nr but banned under the oic. It even says he has registered restricted ones as well, clearly the handguns which means he had a license. So basically just storage is the issue… whoever called in that wellness check should have done it themselves.

Could also be some of the handguns weren’t registered. There is still some old lads around at never registered them.

Hasn’t the handgun registry existed since the 1930s?
