I am in a similar situation. 4 years ago my world fell apart as I realized my then wife's infidelity. I was quite distraught and threatened. Needless to say, I was taken in for observation. I am assuming a situation similar to yours. I was never finger printed, never saw a judge and after a couple days I was released.
I did own a firearm. And in fact went to the police department to retrieve them. To add irony to the situation, my ex now works for that police department.
I own a firearm. And was thinking about getting another. But now I am concerned that while the BATF doesn't consider it an issue, the state of Texas may.
Did you get yours successfully resolved?
Thanks!
I hope time has healed you. Believe me, it happens to the best of us.

I did. Much better now. It was an acute case brought on more so by the way it was handled.
Thanks for asking!

Too bad you can't travel to Pennsylvania. I imagine Dr Bruce Eimer would be happy to give you a clean bill of mental health . He is a practicing psychologist and defensive firearms instructor.

Who says I can't? :)
I travel for work and while I don't generally make to it to PA, I do get to NJ some times and I have a lot of miles saved up. :)
