There are basically a few instances where police might take guns:

1) If they believe you are a danger to yourself or others due to intoxication, mental illness, etc.
2) If they are taking them as part of a protective order or indictment.
3) If the guns (or anything, such as computers or cellphone) are evidence in a criminal investigation.

In each case, there will be a different criteria to get the guns returned and your individual law enforcement agency and prosecutor’s policies will play a big role. In some of the stricter areas, it can be very difficult to get guns returned from evidence even when you are guilty of no crime. I’m aware of cases where it took as long as three years.
