If you kept a list of your firearms serial numbers, make copies of them and distribute them to area pawn shops, sporting good stores and gun dealers. If any of them find their way in there to be sold, you stand a decent chance of getting them back.
I had two guns stolen from me when I was in CA. I did this and got the guns back, both of them, in less than 3 months.
If you don't know the serial numbers, you can contact the dealer you bought them from. If they are still in business, you can get the serial numbers from them as all transactions made after 1969 through licensed FFL holders are retained by the licensee for the duration of the business. When the business closes, all of the form 4473s are transfered to the BATFE for storage, and good luck & fat chance of getting it then.
