Why not turn it into Baker County Sheriff?

I would assume that this hypothetical person will turn it into the Baker Co. Sheriff, but in the mean time might be looking to find the owner without him/her facing potential HB4005 fines for the pistol not being in "control" while lost. The hypothetical person is no lawyer, but thinks that the law seems poorly written...

Asking for legal advice from a lawyer is often confusing enough....
Asking for legal advice from non-lawyer folks is a sure fire way for all manner of trouble.
