Call your County Sheriff's Office or local Police. They may give you additional instructions.
When you turn in the gun or guns you might ask for a receipt
If the gun is legal, you can arrange for it to be transferred to an FFL.

What happens next?

If you do not want the gun or guns back the Sheriff's Department might destroy the gun.

Even if you don't have a gun in your own home, it is important to educate your children about firearm safety in case they discover a gun outside the home or in the homes of their friends. They should know the 4 steps of the Eddie Eagle gun safety program, including:

Stop!
Don't Touch.
Leave the Area.
Tell an Adult.

You should also discuss gun safety with other parents or family members if your child spends time in their homes. It is not enough to assume that if they do have guns in the house, then they have them stored properly.
