What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

mil1776, the "preview" feature on this site is malfunctioning and sometimes deletes posts instead of posting them. I have no idea why.

You can try again to post your question by using the "edit post" function in your original post or by using the "reply to post" function - just don't preview your post prior to submitting it.

Please be sure to include the name of your state when re-posting. Thanks.

Trying to play mind-reader, I will assume you were asking about the legality of removing firearms from a home of someone with PTSD. The short answer (without knowing your state or details) is that simply being diagnosed with some sort of PTSD should NOT be sufficient grounds to seize firearms. However, if the person was involuntarily committed for a psychiatric evaluation, or voluntarily committed for such an evaluation for a period of time (law varies by state) then they could lose their right to possess or own firearms.

cdw is right. But I would add that it also depends on who is doing the removing.

If you are still in the military, the commander can order them removed (post housing) or surrendered (off-post housing).
