The cop took my info and asked if I wanted to press charges if they found somebody. I said yes and he appeared surprised that I would...I think because he had made it clear that the likelihood of finding somebody was slim

Slim to none, is what he meant. Like, zero.
The cops will not lift a finger to investigate this crime.
We had [note past tense] a nice rental house in Atlanta, it got burglarized 5 times, the cops always took at least a half hour to arrive at the scene of the crime, and they never lifted a finger to try to catch the bad guys. Never took a fingerprint, nothing.
The thing was, there was a small "gangsta" neighborhood just 5 blocks away, and there was NO DOUBT that the bad guys lived in that neighborhood. There were only 200 houses in that little neighborhood. I told the cops that they almost certainly had the prints of the robbers in their own files.
It didn't matter, they would never take a print.
On one occasion, the robber's belt had broken off, I found a chunk of his belt on the floor. Looked like evidence to me.
I handed it to the cop, he just tossed it in the garbage.

As for the problem with your wife's gun, what are you doing giving a semi auto to a female?
Get real, and get a nice .38 revolver for her.
Simple is better than complicated.
