Sentencing is beginning of April. They will not return the guns until then. Guilty pleas. They can appeal the plea if sentencing guidelines and felony level change significantly. That's why they must keep them as evidence, on the very unlikely case this still goes to trial.

The ATF, DA and VA have been very helpful. Have yet to contact NFA as have been busy with work life. Already made claims with the ATF and have been granted.

Maybe one day I'll share how they were stolen and recovered, but not until this is over since the public defender may be looking for anything to lower sentencing and my user name here can be easily connected to me.

It was weird in the court proceedings hearing me referred to by my initials. The guilty also had to forfeit ownership of the stolen goods.
