if you are declared mentally unstable , there would be a hearing to evaluate your ownership rights concerning guns. And then a judge would order your guns confiscated .

@TexChik would that not be a violation of my second amendment rights I though that right meant that nobody could take my guns

@MysteriousAura no , if you are declared mentally incompetent you are then a danger to others and it’s illegal for you to have access To guns

@TexChik then I am really confused because I was told that my rights should not be infringed

@MysteriousAura under federal law if you’ve been adjudicated mentally ill, then you forfeit your right to bear arms via the Gun Control Act.
