Even though I do own firearms (3 in total)finding a gun randomly on the street is a situation where you should call local law enforcement. They can pick it up and process it if it hasn't been used in crimes and if it hasn't, after 100 days if you are of the legal age and have no prior arrests/convictions you can sign for it and keep it. If it was used in a crime hopefully they can use it to solve it.
If you find a random firearm turn it in. You might even get to keep it and not feel any guilt about it.
Besides I already have a handgun and I like it more than anything i would ever find on the street. I rebuilt it with a high grade barrel and a ghost-ring sight.
Too bad the ammo is so expensive.

Pistols/handguns which aren't long-barrel are completely illegal over here, except for firearms officers and such, plus I've no great love of guns, so I'd remove it from the situation, remove the clip, make sure the safety's on, wrap clothes around it to disguise the shape in my bag, go straight home, and call the police.
If they want to check it's not a gun that I've somehow illegally obtained, they can check the inevitable CCTV footage of me picking it up, and see that I've no prior convictions on my total lack of a criminal record. Also, character references. I'm not going to just leave a gun on the side of the road, or hang around with it on the street, waiting for the police to arrive.

If that gun turns out to have been used in a crime, and I turn it in, and somehow that leads to an arrest, I could get a nice cash reward. I don't need a gun, and I don't have enemies, so I may as well get it to the cops.
I've become interested in learning to use one (my family sadly does have a couple enemies) and I think it be useful (better than not knowing how at all).
Still, finding one randomly, even its well hidden and not liable to get you thrown in prison if someone sees you with it, could be even worse.
More often than not, i'd would've been "Stashed" or "gotten rid of" rather than dropped, and lots of things could go wrong if you happened to leave a print on the damn thing.
I'd either call the cops, and hang around the gun, or get what i could to cleanly pick it up without touching it, and maybe sell the thing.

Grab it with a rubber glove, take it home, melt some metal of the same type as the gun metal, replace the bullets with my own custom bullets of GENERICY, grab a Stig costume and a backpack of extra clips and FUCK UP EVERYONE THAT I'VE EVER HATED!!!
Unless I'd have to be truthful. Then I'd just call the cops.

Terrible joke, but it almost made me chuckle. Puns don't need to be good to do the trick.MrGameluvr92 said:
I dislike guns so I would simply hand it in to the police. Doubt I would find a gun since I only walk places where there are someone all the time and I stay in my room for the most part.
I've watched enough episodes of NCIS and the various CSI's to know that a gun is not something that you find randomly on the street and shrug off....and that you don't for the love of God ever pick the damn thing up!!! so what I'd do is call the police and tell them my location and the type of weapon and go from there...who knows it could be i've found a vital clue or the key to a murder trial
