90% of people will answer a question from a person in authority, even if there is no legal grounds for this to be compelled to be suppled.
Grandad died early in the year - soooo - he held a firearms licence at death - as at 24th June he held no firearms - pre this date there was no requirement to keep details of where the firearms went.
You did correct in not answering this question - in a way, it could be impossible for you to answer.
Interestingly going forward, whilst there is a requirement to track/register firearms, many many will simply "disappear", as they probably always have done.
