Aside from the 2nd Amendment issue, I wonder if it also poses a property rights issue for the estate of the deceased since it's still an asset with value belonging to the estate. I'm also wondering how this would play out if a trust for the deceased's firearms were established prior to his/her death with the deceased as a beneficiary. Then what happens?
