No, I left it in the car. I just walked in by myself and explained to the officer the situation which he didn’t seem to care lol

That’s what I end up doing. None of the police stations wanted to do anything. They all gave me the runaround. LolThis gun wasn't on the streets, it was in the glove box.
Seriously, best advice given here is to drive the car back to where you got it, drop it off and tell them why. It's their problem, not yours.
I did return the car when my car was finished lol gas is expensive lol
Why the concern….the car you are driving IS A DEADLY WEAPON! One used to commit vehicular homicide every day. I’m glad the car and the gun are returned now.
Rental car outfits deal with this frequently.
My son bought a used SL 190 Mercedes a couple of decades ago. He found a Colt 1911 pistol under one seat and an Omega Seamaster under the other. Extra good deal!

In most states you have to pay extra for a loaner gun.
Close story here, Glock 26 in a Suburban I bought.
I'm not saying I'd keep it, but...

Same here. The high school parking lot was against the woods. Some of us would gear up and go hunting from the school. Different times.
Its an inanimate object like any other until someone touches it. I would also just take the car back to the dealer. They can do with it as they wish.
Welcome to the South.
I got an old school adult video in the trunk of a loaner once. Seems like some low quality antique that only people 30 years older than me would be interested in.

This kind of respect given for firearms is unfortunately too common.
Whoever owns that should not be allowed to own a firearm.
They don't understand the meaning of the word "responsibility."
These people are the reason we can't have nice things.

In high school I used to go hunting after classes. So I would usually have a shotgun or two in my trunk. I remember opening my trunk when a teacher was around. He looked a little wide eyed. I told him it was for hunting afterwards. No problem.
ill say it....keep it.
In some gun regulation crazy jurisdictions, this would initiate a major investigation. In others, a firearm is no different than any other piece of personal property.
This is a lost or misplaced piece of personal property. You have no idea of whether it was ever used in connection with a crime. Just as you do not know if a lost baseball bat was ever used to beat someone.
I would bring bring it back to the place you rented the car as a lost item left behind by someone. If they refuse to take it, bring it to the State Police.

Very irresponsible gun owner, but yea it's the dealers problem. Bring the car back and get a different one

Different vehicle or different gun?
Is both an option?
