Handgun ownership of deceased

[u/Butchi3_To3]

Hello all,

I have a family member who recently passed away who owns some handguns I was wondering if there is anyway to have the passed down to me? The guns themselves are older cowboy style guns and I recently have been interested in Cowboy Action Shooting but obviously cant buy a revolver for the sport and this would be a great opportunity to not only get one but also keep the collectible in the family.

With the laws in place is this even possible anymore?

Thanks in advance

I would imagine you don’t know where they are and I’m sure if you ever do find them you will call police right away to give them up as you’re supposed to.
