Threatening arrest if they find it otherwise is under duress. They have authority, it's still confiscation.

You don't call drug laws confiscation.

Give it a rest.

Which they do the same in the US when they find an illegal gun.

You don't say the US confiscates guns, you're trying to avoid that.

Confiscation would be cold knocking doors and conducting searches and seizing. None of that happened.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Sure, here it's usually required to commit some other real crime for them to confiscate your guns. But it clearly definitely happens. I must have edited my previous post after you clicked it. Please check it.
