You would just let them rummage through your entire house looking for stuff?
No.
A question for Law Enforcement Officers:
If you have a self defense shooting inside your home
are all guns removed or just the one used.
Also in what circumstances would either choice be made??
Thank Jimmy
so what if the gun that was used isn't crystal clear when they are conducting the investigation?....
Let's say there were multiple bad guys and one or two were armed with different weapons. They fire, you fire, you win and the guys with guns run off and leave their ventilated buddy behind...Now there are casings from multiple calibers lying around...You give the LEOs the 9mm you shot with but they don't know for sure where the other casings came from and obviously wouldn't be able to tell what the dead guy was shot with until an autopsy.
Would they then look for and take any firearms you have in those calibers in your home?
Have had it both ways.
The police have always had a warrant to take everything else.
That disgusts me. In what world are they justified in taking the guns that were in your locked safe during the fight? What happens when the criminal's gang banger buddies decide they want revenge for popping Chino's little brother? Are you to be left defenseless?
Even taking the gun you used from you seems like an uneccessary punishment. (yes I know it's for "verification".....but seriously what verification is needed when it's an obvious home invasion or self defense shooting? Who honestly cares what gun you shot him with?)
Better off to buy a shotgun from WalMart, than wait for your impounded firearm to come home

So let's take that a bit farther, I fire approximately a full magazine because of multiple bad guys and they fire a lot of shots too, all in the same caliber, 9mm. Do you think they should take all my firearms chambered in 9mm?

No.
Yeah, because thats how we roll.
Well... Normally I would agree.. Unless a resident INGO member.... (See below)
If its frank, I would just hand them all over and see if he wants to go shooting later
Use purple if you want to.
