Guns aren't registered in TX. He would (or at least should) have the same rights to it as he would any other piece of found property.
I bet the PD would disagree and it simply wouldn't be worth going to court over.

Re: Found A Gun in NRH

I don't have a lot of extra cash laying around, but I do have enough that I don't need the hassle of keeping or getting back from the police a handgun I found on the side of the street. To be honest, I doubt I would have even touched the gun (don't want my prints on it). I think I would have called 911 ( to ensure the call was recorded) and wait there for LEO to come pick it up.
