Among the illegal guns the elderly collector had that the police in Kiel seized were this 88mm towed Flak gun:
And the 75mm gun on this 45 ton Panther Panzer V Tank:
The Police admitted that neither weapon was still capable of being fired, as they had both been deactivated. However, they said that the owner had violated strict registration laws, and that neither was legally registered with the government.
Here is the full press report:
German police seize flak gun, a 45-ton Panther tank and a torpedo in raid on 78-year-old's home
The moral of this story is that if you fail to comply with gun registration, you then risk being subjected to confiscation.
